POST Administrative Manual Changes

Effective 3-01-08

The Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) has amended training and certification stan­dards for instructors who teach POST-certified training courses.

Academy Instructor Certificate Program
Regulation 1070
(pdf, 460 kb)
Minimum Training Standards for Instructors of POST-Certified
Specialized Training
Regulation 1071
(pdf, 460 kb)
Minimum Training Standards for Basic Academy Directors, Coordinators,and Recruit Training Officers
Regulation 1082
(pdf, 460 kb)
Minimum Content Requirements for Instructor Courses
Regulation 1083
(pdf, 460 kb)
Minimum Contents Requirements for Academy Staff Courses

Prior to this action, academy participation in the Academy Instructor Certificate Program (AICP) was voluntary. As amended, the regulations mandate that each academy providing Regular Basic Course instruction shall participate in the AICP, effective March 1, 2008, to insure that instructors meet POST standards. Prospective instructors must successfully complete the Academy Instructor Certification Course (AICC) as a prerequisite to teaching any specialized subjects taught in the Regular Basic Course. This action lists courses that are exempt from the AICC prerequisite. It also elimi­nates the Academy Instructor Development Course requirement that is replaced by the AICC, thereby establishing a single minimum training and certification requirement - the Academy Instructor Certification Course.

Note: Any document or training resource that is “incorporated by reference” in a regulation or procedure is deemed to be a regulation and is therefore subject to the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act. This means the rulemaking process is required for any changes to the incorporated item.
