The Justice and Public Safety Cabinet shall require all officers employed by
them to complete an educational course approved by the Cabinet for Health
and Family Services on human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired
immunodeficiency syndrome. The Justice and Public Safety Cabinet shall
develop literature on the human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired
immunodeficiency syndrome and a training curriculum of not more than four (4)
hours for the instruction of officers. The literature and training curriculum shall
include information of known modes of transmission and methods of controlling
and preventing these diseases with an emphasis on appropriate behavior and
attitude change. This training may be part of any other training required and for
which law enforcement officers receive an allowance to attend. However,
nonreceipt of allowance does not exclude a law enforcement officer from the
training required in this section.
All officers shall successfully complete the training required. Any person
holding the position of officer shall not exercise that position for more than one
(1) year without successfully completing the required training. If an officer does
not successfully complete the required training within the time specified, he or
she shall be suspended from further service as an officer until he or she
successfully completes the required training.
