Attendance at Training. If an employee wishes to attend a law enforcement seminar, training program or school on his own time at his own expense, the Chief of Police will, if feasible, authorize his attendance, and the Employer will allow reasonable time off without pay for the employee to attend such seminar, program or school, provided that necessary xxxxxxx levels are maintained. A request for payment of fees and expenses associated with a law enforcement seminar, training program or school attended or to be attended by an employee shall be submitted to the Chief of Police in writing and shall explain the educational value of the training as well as the costs already expended or to be expended in attendance. Such requests shall be considered by the Employer, which may or may not, in its sole discretion, approve or authorize payment.
Attendance at Training. To provide guidance to department employees in regards to travel and meal reimbursement when attending training the following standards will apply. When attending a local (local defined as within driving distance) training or training at the Maine Criminal Justice Academy, the employee will utilize a department vehicle. If a department vehicle is available but the employee elects to use his/her own vehicle, no mileage reimbursement will be paid. If a department vehicle is not available, the employee may use his/her own vehicle with prior permission from a supervisor. Employees who are forced to use their own vehicle for authorized department travel due to no department vehicle being available will be reimbursed for mileage at a rate determined by the Town Manager. The employee will submit the mileage reimbursement form to the Police Chief with starting and ending mileage. When attending a full day (8 hours) of local training, the employee will be reimbursed for his/her lunch up to a maximum of $15. If the training is scheduled for four (4) hours or less, meals will not be reimbursed. When attending an overnight training, typically out of state, the employee will have all travel and meal allowances pre-approved by the Police Chief or his/her designee.
