This bill amends existing legislation to ensure that funding for the Philando Castile Memorial Training Fund is ongoing, specifically allocating $6,000,000 each year to support law enforcement training and best practices. The funds are designated for reimbursement of costs related to specific training courses that comply with Minnesota Statutes concerning use of force, crisis response, conflict management, cultural diversity, and autism training. The bill outlines requirements for training course sponsors, including the submission of course goals, outlines, instructor qualifications, and learning assessments to the board for approval.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the board maintain records of all approved and denied course applications and conduct reviews of continuing education courses after the first year, with a timetable for recurring reviews. It also stipulates that if there are remaining funds after reimbursing eligible training requests, the board may allocate those funds to reimburse law enforcement agencies for other approved training courses. The base for this activity has been changed from $0 to $6,000,000, ensuring a consistent funding source for law enforcement training initiatives.
