provided by HACC, AT NO COST to certified municipal officers and/or county detectives (those whose records are maintained in

TACS by MPOETC.

Departments will still register their officers for the MIST training as always, but there will be no charge and therefore, no billing for

any of the four MPOETC in-service courses. Departments will not pay and will not be reimbursed for tuition for these four courses

– all tuition reimbursement will be paid directly to HACC by MPOETC.

In 2021, Legal Updates and Recognizing and Responding to Individuals with Special Needs are mandatory courses and must be

taken by every certified municipal officer either in class or online. The other two MPOETC courses may also be taken at no cost as

well. Officers are still permitted to substitute CLEE-approved courses in lieu of the elective MIST courses.

Departments who are not maintained in TACS, but who are permitted to take the MPOETC courses will have to pay $100.00 per

officer for Legal Updates (21-001.) Students must register and pay $100 for Legal Update in order to take the other three courses

free of charge. There is a separate process in place for these departments. Please contact our office for more information if you are

one of these agencies.

Please Note: The Continuing Law Enforcement Education (CLEE) requirement consists of 12 hours of classroom training for 2021.

The additional hour listed for each course is for administrative time and testing.
