Effective, January 1, 2020, SB 978 requires the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training and each local law enforcement agency to conspicuously post on their Internet Web sites all current standards, policies, practices, operating procedures, and education and training materials that would otherwise be available to the public if a request was made pursuant to the California Public Records Act.

In compliance with SB-978, POST has made available through their website all presenter course content, unless the material falls within an applicable exemption under the Public Records Act.
