This area is so critically important and appears to be enough of a lift to review all existing curriculum through the collective lens of Council members and subject matter experts. The staff from the Vermont Police Academy would likely be the same as the existing Training Advisory Committee, but with a more specific focus. Areas of focus will immediately include several areas identified within S. 124. It may be determined that this function be the responsibility of the Training Advisory Committee and this becomes the responsibility of that sub-committee.
