THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:

weapon or restraint device while on duty, he or she completes the
following required training:
(i) For an aerosol spray or conducted energy device, any

security or law enforcement personnel. The licensee shall ensure
that the individual maintains that certification at all times while
