Intensive comprehensive law enforcement education and training program modified, and money appropriated.

HF 120 modifies Minnesota's intensive law enforcement training program for aspiring officers. It requires the commissioner to develop an 8-month curriculum by 2026 (retroactive to 2023), to be offered at designated state colleges and private nonprofit institutions. The bill appropriates $5 million for fiscal year 2026 to fund this program, available through 2029. This directly affects peace officer candidates seeking licensure and the institutions providing their training. The law updates existing requirements without changing licensing standards.
