INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — The Indiana House of Representatives voted unanimously in support of a bill requiring a refresher training course for law enforcement officers.
Senate Bill 185, sponsored by Representative Randy Frye (R-Greensburg) would establish a training refresher course for officers who have already graduated from the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy but were inactive for two or more years.
According to Frye, the bill establishes training guidelines when long-term breaks occur for reserve officers, full-time officers, and students that are paying their way through the training academy while also attending school.
The bill has been approved by the House of Representatives and Senate and awaits a signature from the governor.
