General Requirements. A police officer promoted to a first-line, or higher, supervisor position, shall successfully complete Commission-approved supervisor training within 1 year of the promotion, unless the police officer successfully completed Commission-approved supervisor training within the 2 years preceding the promotion. A police officer promoted to a first-line, or higher, administrator position is required to successfully complete Commission-approved administrator training within 1 year of the promotion, unless the police officer successfully completed Commission-approved administrator training within the 2 years preceding the promotion. Once a police officer successfully completes Commission-approved supervisor training, the Commission does not require the police officer to complete additional supervisor training for subsequent promotions to another supervisor position that does not include duties of an administrative position. A police officer promoted directly to a first-line administrator position from a rank below the first-line supervisor position shall complete both Commission-approved supervisor and administrator training within 1 year of the promotion, unless the police officer has successfully completed Commission-approved supervisor or administrator training, or both, within the 2 years preceding the promotion. Police Officer Supervisor and Administrator Training Minimum Requirements. The Commission requires that: Only Commission-approved or certified instructors provide the police officer supervisor or administrator training; A police officer shall obtain a 70 percent overall test score to successfully complete the training; The training shall be a minimum of 35 hours in duration; Unless determined otherwise by the agency head and the Commission, a police officer required to attend Commission-approved supervisor or administrator training may not miss more than 10 percent of the total training time; The Commission's training objectives for police officer supervisor or administrator are to be covered in the training as written by the Commission; and The agency head submit the proposed police officer supervisor or administrator training to the Commission for approval at least 20 working days before the start of the proposed training. The agency head shall submit rosters, required reports, and grades to the Commission upon completion of the training. Upon request, the Commission shall furnish the Commission's minimum course outline and training objectives for police officer supervisor or administrator training to the agency head. If an agency head changes previously approved training, the training director shall submit the new training in writing to the Commission for approval at least 20 working days before the start of the new training. Waivers. The Commission may waive requirements for successful completion of the Commission-required supervisor or administrator training under this regulation if an agency head provides the Commission with documentation that establishes that the police officer successfully completed parallel Commission-approved supervisor or administrator training. The Commission has determined that the following programs are generally acceptable substitutes for the Commission-required supervisor or administrator training if the police officer successfully completed the training within 2 years preceding or 1 year following the promotion: The Northwestern University School of Police Staff and Command program; The Southern Police Institute Administrative Officer Course; The FBI National Academy; and Other equivalent training approved by the Deputy Director. The agency head shall submit a request for a waiver of Commission police officer supervisor or administrator training requirements to the Deputy Director for approval. Failure to Complete Commission-Required Supervisor or Administrator Training. If a police officer does not successfully complete either Commission-approved supervisor or administrator training by the first anniversary date of a promotion to either a first-line supervisor or first-line administrator position, the police officer's agency head shall: Relieve the police officer of the respective first-line supervisory or first-line administrative duties related to the position; and Inform the Commission in writing within 30 days of the action that the law enforcement agency has taken to relieve the police officer of supervisory or administrative duties.
