            Currently, continuing education training periods for police chiefs vary depending on when a chief completed the initial training after election or appointment to the position.  House Bill 486 amends the Education Code to require the Commission on Law Enforcement Officer Standards and Education to establish a uniform 24-month continuing education training period for police chiefs and sets out the means for determining the beginning of the first such period for each individual.
