Requires Police Training Commission to adopt training course on school emergency response.
This bill requires New Jersey's Police Training Commission to create a mandatory training course on school emergency response, including active shooter scenarios and lockdown drill procedures. All local police officers must complete this training: new officers before receiving permanent appointment, and existing officers within 36 months of the law's effective date. The training will be administered by police departments as part of standard in-service requirements. It directly affects every local law enforcement officer in New Jersey operating within school districts. The law takes immediate effect upon passage.
