- Law enforcement officers, training required for newly appointed chiefs of police, and annual training required for all law enforcement officers, Sec. 36-21-51 am'd.
- Description
Under existing law, chiefs of police of municipalities are required to complete 20 hours of continuing education annually, and other law enforcement officers are required to complete 12 hours of continuing education annually, except officers employed by a sheriff's department are only required to complete annual continuing education if the county commission requires the training.
