SRO Continuing Education Requirement:
There shall be a continuing educational requirement for those holding a specialty SRO certificate. Within
the two-year period after issuance, each SRO must complete at least one course within the three
general topic areas: Juvenile Law, Officer and Youth Interactions and School Threat Response. No renewal will be issued until evidence of completion of these requirements is presented to the Board.
ILSROA Conference
The 3-Day ILSROA Conference is a great option to earn your SRO Continuing Education hours for Illinois. Every year we have a different lineup of topics and speakers and will always include the 3 needed areas of study: Active Threat Response, Juvenile Law, and Officer & Youth Interaction. SROs will also learn from each other during multiple Networking Events and interact with some of the best SRO related organizations and vendors in the country.
