Section 6019.2 - Statement of purpose

(a) The purpose of this Part is to set forth minimum standards for a pre-employment correction basic training course, including, but not limited to, subject matter and time allotments, requirements for administration of the course-by-course directors, and rules governing attendance and completion of such course.

(b) The pre-employment correction basic training course is an alternative method of correction officer basic training set forth in Part 6018 of this Title and is designed to be completed by civilians. An individual who successfully completes a pre-employment correction basic training course must complete additional training after appointment as a sworn correction officer in order to fulfill requirements set forth in section 2.30 of the Criminal Procedure Law. Provided, however, nothing in this Part shall preclude a sworn correction officer from attending a pre-employment correction basic training course.

(c) Use of a pre-employment correction basic training course is not required and the determination to utilize this alternative method of training shall be within the discretion of each employer. An employer may require an individual who has been appointed as a sworn correction officer, and who previously successfully completed a pre-employment basic course, to complete the basic course for correction officers as set forth in Part 6018 of this Title.
