How many attempts are allowed for a trainee to pass the TCOLE licensing examination before termination?

The correct choice indicates that a trainee is allowed three attempts to successfully pass the TCOLE (Texas Commission on Law Enforcement) licensing examination before facing termination from the training program. This policy is in place to ensure that trainees have a reasonable opportunity to demonstrate their competence and knowledge required for law enforcement duties.

Permitting three attempts allows trainees to progressively improve and learn from their previous attempts, reflecting the understanding that not everyone may perform their best on the first try. This approach not only supports trainees in their learning and development but also upholds the standards required for effective law enforcement personnel.
