Should a trainee fail academically, physically, the Firearms Manipulation Skills Test, the Defensive Tactics Proficiency Test, or is absent for more than 5% of academy training in violation of Rule 650-X-4-.01(4). the hiring agency may request that the trainee be allowed to attend another session, provided the trainee is within his/her provisional appointment time period. An applicant whose provisional appointment time has not expired is eligible for one (1) additional attempt to complete the training academy, subject to the employing agency's request. If an applicant fails the academy twice, the applicant is ineligible to attend an academy for a period of two (2) years from the date of failure of the second academy attempt. If, after two (2) years, the applicant is again employed as a law enforcement officer, a new application package is required. This does not exempt the applicant from Rule 650-X-2-.01.
