(a) The commission may, in the exercise of discretion, award a certificate to any person who has been duly certified under the laws of another state or territory if, in the opinion of the director of police training, the requirements for certification in such other jurisdiction equal or exceed the qualifications required to complete satisfactorily the basic course of instruction at the training center.
(b) The commission may waive any number of the hours or courses required to complete the basic course of instruction at the training center, part-time school, reciprocity school or for the hours required for annual continuing education for any person who, in the opinion of the director of police training, has received sufficient training or experience that such hours of instruction would be, unless waived, unduly burdensome or duplicative.
