Section 10B .0503 - TIME REQ/COMPLETION/BASIC LAW ENFORCEMENT TRAINING COURSE

(a) Each deputy sheriff shall have completed with passing scores the accredited basic training course as prescribed in 12 NCAC 09B .0205 prior to obtaining probationary certification. Any deputy sheriff who does not comply with this Rule or other training provisions of this Chapter shall not exercise the powers of a deputy sheriff, including the power of arrest.

(b) Any applicant for certification who has completed a Commission-certified basic law enforcement training program, but has not been duly appointed and certified in a sworn law enforcement position within one year of completion of the course, shall complete a subsequent Commission-certified basic law enforcement training program and pass the State Comprehensive Examination pursuant to 12 NCAC 09B .0406 within the 12 month probationary period. The Director shall waive this requirement to complete a subsequent Commission-certified basic law enforcement training program and pass the State Comprehensive Examination and accept a basic law enforcement training program and pass the State Comprehensive Examination that was completed outside of the one year time period as set forth in this Rule unless he or she determines that a delay in applying for certification was due to negligence on the part of the applicant or employing agency. The extension of the one year period shall not exceed 30 days from the expiration date of the commission-certified basic law enforcement training program completed by the applicant.
