Wyoming Peace Officer Standards and Training (P.O.S.T.)
The Wyoming Peace Officers Standards and Training
Commission (POST) sets standards for employing,
certifying, and training of all peace officers in the
state, all detention officers, (county jails) all
corrections officers (state institutions) and all
dispatchers. These personnel are from municipal, county
and state agencies. We maintain training files on all of
these personnel, and monitor and enforce all mandated
standards for their certification and re-certification.
There are continuing education standards in place for
all of the certifications which must be met every two
years. We also administer a pre-employment written exam
for perspective law enforcement employees and make that
list of successful candidates available to all agencies
who request it. We also administer promotion exams for
the agencies and schedule upon their request.
We also have the statutory mandate to work with the
Board of Coroners in certifying all coroners and deputy
coroners who have met the mandatory basic requirements.
We maintain all of their training files and monitor just
as we do all law enforcement training files. The
Commission also has the authority to de-certify for
cause those individuals who are deemed to no longer meet
the standards or mandates, or whose actions cause
disciplinary action to be taken against their
employment. These de-certification actions follow the
"Administrative Procedures Act" and can end up in a full
hearing before the Commission. The Commission meets
twice a year, in April and in Sept. Special meetings
when needed can be called by the Chairman.
Entry level exams by appointment
