§ 6022. Terms of Apprenticeship.

(a) The Apprenticeship Program requires the completion of a minimum of 3,600 hours in the respective work processes as shown in Section 6029 of these regulations, and a minimum of 24 qualifying months of on-the-job training. Credits may be awarded by the Local Apprenticeship Subcommittee to reduce the term of apprenticeship in accordance with Section 6025. Apprentices are required to complete the academy for the job classification, if one exists, but neither the time spent at the academy, nor time spent in any supplemental training counts towards the 3,600 hours of on-the-job training.

(b) The apprentice must successfully pass probation as defined by the State Personnel Board for the apprentice's classification and the Memorandum of Understanding.

(c) Overtime hours worked by the apprentice shall be credited to the appropriate work process category, but shall not reduce the two-year on-the-job training requirement.

(d) Duties performed within a limited/light duty function shall not count towards the 3,600 work process hours except to the degree the apprentice is successfully performing the work process hours of a Correctional Peace Officer.

(e) Each Apprenticeship Program shall be divided into 4 periods, each consisting of a minimum of 900 hours of on-the-job training, or 6 qualifying pay periods, whichever is longer.

(f) Duties performed that are not identified as part of the apprentice's classification shall not be counted as part of the apprentice's work process credits.
