(b) OAG's use of a standardized training evaluation system for new hires, the successful completion of which is a pre-requisite for a new hire to be able to perform the duties of the position; or

(c) A new hire's need to complete courses or training necessary for receiving certification(s) required for the position.

224.3

Managers seeking a probationary period of longer than one (1) year shall submit a written request for authorization to Attorney General or designee.
