§59-1750.3A.


    A.  Each applicant for an armed security guard license shall be
administered any current standard form of the Minnesota Multiphasic
Personality Inventory (MMPI), or other psychological evaluation
instrument approved by the Council on Law Enforcement Education and
Training, which shall be administered during the firearms training
phase required by Section 1750.3 of  this title.  The security
training school administering such instrument shall forward the
response data to a psychologist licensed by the State Board of
Examiners of Psychologists for evaluation.  The licensed psychologist
shall be of the applicant's choice.  Applicants with comparable
training shall complete the psychological test and evaluation
requirements prior to licensing.  It shall be the responsibility of
the applicant to bear the cost of the psychological evaluation.
    B.  If the licensed psychologist is unable to certify the
applicant's psychological capability to exercise appropriate
judgment, restraint, and self-control, after evaluating the data, the
psychologist shall employ whatever other psychological measuring
instruments or techniques deemed necessary to form a professional
opinion.  The use of any psychological measuring instruments or
techniques shall require a full and complete written explanation to
the Council on Law Enforcement Education and Training.
    C.  The psychologist shall forward a written psychological
evaluation, on a form prescribed by the Council, to the Council
within fifteen (15) days of the evaluation, even if the applicant is
found to be psychologically at risk.  The Council may utilize the
results of the psychological evaluation for up to six (6) months from
the date of the evaluation after which the applicant shall be
reexamined.  No person who has been found psychologically at risk in
the exercise of appropriate judgment, restraint, or self-control
shall reapply for certification until one (1) year from the date of
being found psychologically at risk.
    D.  Active peace officers who have been certified by the Council
on Law Enforcement Education and Training shall be exempt from the
provisions of this section.
