Information
Referral History:
This bill was referred to the Legislation Committee by County Probation Officer Philip Kader.
Referral Update:
AB 546 (Gonzalez) seeks to authorize a probation department to apply to either the commission or the Board of State and Community Corrections to become a certified provider of that training course for the purpose of training probation officers.
Existing law requires every peace officer to complete an introductory course of training prescribed by the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training, except for specifically exempted categories of peace officers, and imposes other training requirements on those persons who would exercise the powers of peace officers.
Existing law provides that a probation department that is a certified provider of that training course shall not be required to offer the course to the general public.
This bill would authorize a probation department to apply to either the commission or the Board of State and Community Corrections to become a certified provider of that training course for the purpose of training probation officers.
(See bill text in attachment.)
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
CONSIDER recommending a position of "Support" to the Board of Supervisors for AB 546 (Gonzalez) Peace Officers: Basic Training Requirements.
