  1  4    "Section 1.  NEW SECTION.  80B.11D  TRAINING.
  1  5    1.  An individual who is not a certified law
  1  6 enforcement officer may apply for attendance at a
  1  7 short course of study at an approved law enforcement
  1  8 training program if such individual is sponsored by a
  1  9 law enforcement agency.  Such individual may be

  1 11 intends to hire or has hired the individual as a law
  1 12 enforcement officer.
  1 13    2.  An individual who submits an application
  1 14 pursuant to subsection 1 shall, at a minimum, meet all
  1 15 minimum hiring standards as established by academy
  1 16 rules, including the successful completion of certain
  1 17 psychological and physical testing examinations.  In
  1 18 addition, such individual shall be of good moral
  1 19 character as determined by a thorough background
  1 20 investigation by the hiring law enforcement agency.
  1 21 The academy shall conduct the requisite testing and
  1 22 background investigation for a fee if the law
  1 23 enforcement agency does not do so, and for such
  1 24 purposes, the academy shall be defined as a law
  1 25 enforcement agency and shall have the authority to
  1 26 conduct a background investigation including a
  1 27 fingerprint search of local, state, and national
  1 28 fingerprint files.
  1 29    3.  An individual who submits an application
  1 30 pursuant to subsection 1 shall, at a minimum, submit
  1 31 proof of successful completion of a two-year or four-
  1 32 year police science or criminal justice program at an
  1 33 accredited educational institution in this state
  1 34 approved by the academy.
  1 35    4.  An individual shall not be granted permission
  1 36 to attend an approved law enforcement training program
  1 37 pursuant to subsection 1 if such acceptance would
  1 38 result in the nonacceptance of another qualifying
  1 39 applicant who is a law enforcement officer.
  1 40    5.  This section applies only to individuals who
  1 41 apply for certification through a short course of
  1 42 study as established by rule.
  1 43    6.  An individual who has not been hired by a law
  1 44 enforcement agency must be hired by a law enforcement
  1 45 agency within eighteen months of completing the short
  1 46 course of study in order to obtain certification
  1 47 pursuant to this section."
