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 meet the criteria outlined in Minnesota Statutes, including use of force, crisis response, conflict management, and autism training. The bill also establishes 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 training course applications and conduct reviews of continuing education courses after the first year. Sponsors are required to submit learning assessments to demonstrate that courses meet approved learning outcomes. The bill allows for the reimbursement of law enforcement agencies for other board-approved training courses if funds remain after fulfilling eligible requests, with the base funding for this activity now set at $6,000,000.
