Can an already licensed individual retake the licensing exam according to TCOLE Rules?

According to TCOLE (Texas Commission on Law Enforcement) Rules, an already licensed individual is not permitted to retake the licensing exam once they have successfully completed it and received their license. This policy is in place to uphold the integrity and standards of licensure in law enforcement. Once a candidate has demonstrated their competency by passing the exam, further attempts to retake the exam are unnecessary and not allowed, ensuring that the licensing process remains streamlined and efficient.

The other options suggest varying conditions under which an individual could retake the exam, such as failing it or needing to wait a certain period, but these do not align with TCOLE's stipulations for licensed individuals. The intent of TCOLE’s regulations is to maintain a high standard of qualification for law enforcement personnel, which is why retaking the exam is not allowed once a license has been granted.
