The increasingly diverse challenges and changing service demands
confronting law enforcement require that the content and instructional
methodologies of peace officer training be regularly evaluated
and updated. Effective initial training is crucial if an officer
is to acquire the critical knowledge, skills and abilities necessary
to render high quality service.
The Training and Testing Specifications list the minimum, mandated
curriculum and testing for the POST-mandated basic courses. The curriculum
for each basic course listed below is divided into individual topics,
called Learning Domains. The Learning Domains contain the minimum
required foundational information for given subjects and appear
in sequential order. Each Learning Domain includes descriptions
of learning needs, lists of related learning objectives, any required
tests and instructional activities, and minimum hourly requirements.
The Training and Testing Specifications are updated twice a year, or as needed,
and coincide with the educational objectives (EO's) listed in the
student workbooks used by academies.
