A standardized examination process will be utilized by all basic law enforcement academies sponsored or conducted by the commission in evaluating the level of scholastic achievement of each recruit. Such process will include the application of a designated minimum passing score to each subject area and the availability of a retesting procedure. Failure to achieve the required minimum passing score will result in termination of academy assignment.

(2) Practical skills. A standardized evaluation process will be utilized by all basic law enforcement academies sponsored or conducted by the commission in evaluating the level of practical performance of each recruit. Such process will include the application of pass/fail grading to designated instructional objectives for physical performance and the availability of a retesting procedure. Failure to achieve a final passing grade in each practical skills dimension will preclude a certificate of completion.

(3) Conduct. Failure to maintain an exemplary standard of conduct or to adhere to all rules, regulations, and policies of a basic law enforcement academy sponsored or conducted by the commission may result in termination of academy assignment.
