Services on human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired
immunodeficiency syndrome. The Justice and Public Safety Cabinet shall develop
literature on the human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired
immunodeficiency syndrome and a training curriculum of not more than four (4)
hours for the instruction of officers. The literature and training curriculum shall
include information of known modes of transmission and methods of controlling
and preventing these diseases with an emphasis on appropriate behavior and attitude
change. This training may be part of any other training required and for which law
enforcement officers receive an allowance to attend. However, nonreceipt of
allowance does not exclude a law enforcement officer from the training required in
this section. (2) All officers shall successfully complete the training required. Any person holding the position of officer shall not exercise that position for more than one (1) year
without successfully completing the required training. If an officer does not
