(50 ILCS 740/12) (from Ch. 85, par. 542)
Sec. 12. Advanced training programs. The Office, in its discretion, may
adopt rules and minimum
standards for advanced training programs for fire protection
personnel in addition to the basic training programs. The training for
fire protection personnel may be given in any schools approved
by the Office. Such training, if offered, may be discontinued by the
school upon either a temporary or permanent basis. Local governmental
agencies which have elected to participate in the basic training
program may elect to participate in the advanced training for
fire protection personnel, but non-participation in the advanced program
shall not in any way affect the right of governmental agencies to
participate in the basic training program. The failure of any permanent fire
protection employee to successfully complete any course herein
authorized shall not affect his or her status as a member of the fire
department of any local governmental agency.
