In some cases, the course is paired with 24 class hours of firearms training, but Palomar\u2019s course is focused on the 40-hour arrest portion.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.palomar.edu\/policeacademy\/pc-832-courses\/\">PC 832 Arrest Courses at Palomar College<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n<h4>Upcoming Courses in 2022:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>May 2\u20136<\/li>\n<li>May 23\u201327<\/li>\n<li>June 13\u201317<\/li>\n<li>July 11\u201315<\/li>\n<li>August 15\u201319<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cDifferent types of occupations require this certification, including park rangers, code enforcement officers, parking enforcement, lifeguards\u2014those who have powers to write a citation, for example, as part of their duties,\u201d Barnes said. \u201cAnybody can take the course, but it\u2019s specifically required for certain positions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The first class, offered in March, was almost full, and on a recent Thursday afternoon dozens of students were drilling\u2014or practicing their search techniques\u2014inside a large room at the Public Safety Training Center in San Marcos.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re going to present the course every month through October, including twice in May. The courses are already filling up,\u201d said Barnes. \u201cAgencies are enrolling their employees, and we have individuals who go on the POST website and find our course.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The intense demand has been driven by the widespread suspension of face-to-face training during the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPC 832 training is offered throughout the state, but it has not been offered in San Diego County since the pandemic,\u201d Barnes explained. \u201cSo it\u2019s been more than two years since it\u2019s been available, which means that employers were having to send people out of the county, having to pay for travel expenses, per diem, room and board.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Barnes said students are learning thirteen different legal topics in the POST curriculum, including search and seizure, criminal law, use of force, and community policing. The arrest and control portion of the course includes the principles of officer safety in contacting individuals, proper search techniques, and handcuffing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose are all things that could be a part of using these arrest powers\u2014it can entail physical contact, it might entail handcuffing,\u201d she said. \u201cSo this is required by the state to demonstrate proficiency in those techniques.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Students must pass skills proficiency tests and a written exam to earn their certification, which includes registration in the state\u2019s training database.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about Palomar\u2019s PC 832 Arrest course, including online registration, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.palomar.edu\/policeacademy\/pc-832-courses\/\">https:\/\/www.palomar.edu\/policeacademy\/pc-832-courses\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Required for certain occupations, the new certification courses are filling up fast after more than two years without a local option for San Diego employers.
