This means TMCEC cannot report TCOLE credit for any of its courses. The Online Court Security Officer Course (10999), which was developed by TMCEC and hosted on the Online Learning Center, is no longer offered through TMCEC. However, this course is now available on the TCOLE website free of charge for all court security officers: www.tcole.texas.gov. Login to your MyTCOLE Account or create an account to access the course. Because court security officers are court personnel, TMCEC invites and encourages them to attend our Court Security Conference and other courses that are open to court security officers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Court Security Officers <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chapter 156 of the Government Code provides requirements for court security officers. A person may not serve as a court security officer for an appellate, district, statutory county, county, municipal or justice court in this state unless the person holds a court security certification issued by a training program approved by the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE). However, a court security officer is not required to hold a court security certification to provide security to a court before the first anniversary of the date the officer begins providing security for the court. A court security officer is defined as a constable, sheriff, sheriff&#8217;s deputy, municipal peace officer, or any other person assigned to provide security for an appellate, district, statutory county, county, municipal, or justice court in this state. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TCOLE, in consultation with OCA, developed a model court security curriculum for court security officers\u00a0(Course 10999), which is now available on the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tcole.texas.gov\/content\/course-curriculum-materials-and-updates-0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TCOLE website<\/a>. This course should not be confused with the court security specialist certification (see below). Course 10999 is required for all persons performing court security in any court in Texas. The court security specialist certification is not required, but does satisfy certification requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Other News<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For information on OCA&#8217;s security division and how to secure privacy protections for judges, see the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.txcourts.gov\/programs-services\/court-security\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">OCA&#8217;s Court Security webpage<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TMCEC is no longer a TCOLE training provider.
