The California Constitution authorizes the Legislature to provide preferences for veterans in civil service positions. Existing civil service law further requires that veterans be allowed preference points for civil service employment, as specified. Existing law provides that disabled veterans who become eligible for certification from eligible lists by attaining the passing mark established for an entrance examination held on an open, nonpromotional basis are allowed 15 additional points. Other veterans are allowed 10 additional points. This bill would specify that veterans who have completed acceptable training in the United States Armed Forces as military law enforcement officers shall be allowed 15 additional points for any entrance examination for a peace officer position. The bill would require the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training to establish, by regulation, what constitutes "acceptable training" for purposes of this provision. The bill would also declare the Legislature's intent to simplify and expedite the process by which veterans who have completed acceptable training in the United States Armed Forces may become California peace officers.
