MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS:
Please review all information thoroughly prior to requesting enrollment. Applicants not adhering to the requirements will be denied or removed unless prerequisites are met.

Limits: Each roster is limited to 2 students per agency. Training coordinators can contact Katie.Johnson@maryland.gov to add students to the waitlist.

Pretest: All attendees must prequalify for admittance into the class, and should carefully review the prequalification information sheet. This link also provides information on how to schedule a pre-test. Students should call no more than 60 days in advance of the first testing date, and all testing must be scheduled at least 2 weeks prior to the first testing date. Only those registered or on the waiting list can attempt to qualify or be tested.

Additional Information

- This roster has a closing date of 1 month (30 days) prior to the course starting date. Any cancellations after the closing date may result in the forfeiture of the registration fee.

- Program costs may be reduced if an agency supplies an MPCTC EVO Certified Instructor (per 2 enrolled students) for the entire program duration. Since this is not guaranteed, a payment method must be provided upon enrollment and course fees will be edited as needed after the course conclusion.

- Agencies holding a seat with a to-be-determined student will need to enter the information one month prior to the first testing date. If student information is not entered by this time, the hold will be automatically removed from the roster.

- Applicants from any non-client agencies will be admitted to the class only if there are vacant seats remaining after the last pretesting date. Non-client agency participants will not be required to complete the prequalification test ahead of the start date. Interested persons can email a signed registration form to Katie.Johnson@maryland.gov to be added to the non-client waitlist. All forms must have an approving signature in order to register the student. This can be an agency head, supervisor, or training coordinator – someone to authorize the student to take this course. MD Police & Correctional Training Commissions requires credit card information in order to process non-client enrollments (Visa or MasterCard).
