Current through Register Vol. 39, No. 2, July 15, 2024
(a) An applicant meeting the requirements for
				  certification as a Detention Officer Instructor shall serve a probationary
				  period. The expiration dates of any existing Commission-issued Probationary
				  General Detention Officer Instructor Certifications shall be set to expire
				  concurrently with the expiration of the instructor's Probationary General
				  Instructor Certification issued by the North Carolina Criminal Justice
				  Education and Training Standards Commission. If the time-period before the
				  expiration date is less than one year, then the eight hours of instruction as
				  specified in Paragraph (b) of this Rule shall be waived for this shortened term
				  and Full General Detention Officer Instructor Certification shall be issued
				  provided all other conditions for Full General Detention Officer Instructor
				  Certification status as set out in Paragraph (b) of this Section are met. If
				  the applicant has a Full General Instructor certification with no expiration
				  date, the expiration date for the Probationary Detention Officer Instructor
				  Certification shall be set for a period of one year from date of
				  issue.
(b) The probationary
				  instructor shall be awarded Full General Detention Officer Instructor
				  Certification at the end of the probationary period if the instructor's
				  certification required in
				  12 NCAC
				  10B .0904(a) remains valid,
				  and the instructor submits to the Division a completed Request for Detention
				  Officer Instructor Certification Form I-2, with either:
(1) a favorable recommendation from a school
				  director accompanied by certification on a Commission Instructor Evaluation
				  Form F-16 that the instructor taught a minimum of eight hours as specified in
				  Paragraph (e) of this Rule in a Commission-certified Detention Officer
				  Certification Course, or in a Commission-recognized Detention Officer
				  In-Service Course as set out in the Mandated In-Service Training Manual
				  published by the North Carolina Justice Academy, during his or her probationary
				  year; or
(2) a favorable written
				  evaluation as specified in Paragraph (e) of this Rule by a Commission member or
				  Division staff member based on an on-site classroom evaluation of the
				  probationary instructor in a Commission-certified Detention Officer
				  Certification Course or in a Commission-recognized Detention Officer In-Service
				  Course. The evaluation shall be certified on a Criminal Justice Instructor
				  Evaluation Form F-16. In addition, instructors evaluated by a Commission member
				  or Division staff member must also teach a minimum of eight hours in a
				  Commission-certified Detention Officer Certification Course during his or her
