On October 7, 2005, the Governor signed Assembly Bill No. 1234 which was chaptered as Government Code Section 53234 through 53235.2. This law requires that if a local agency provides any type of compensation, salary, or stipend to, or reimburses the expenses of, a member of its 'legislative body' (as that term is defined in California Government Code Section 54952), that local agency's officials must receive training in ethics. Based on BETARMA's policies regarding meeting fees and expense reimbursements, the BETA Council members are subject to this law and shall receive at least two hours of training in general ethics principles and ethics laws every two years. While not required by the law, it is BETARMA's policy to require its Senior Staff and (beginning in 2011) its Branch Managers to receive at least two hours of ethics training every two years.
New BETA Council members, Senior Staff and Branch Managers are required to complete the ethics training no later than one year from the first day of service to BETARMA. BETARMA provides information on training available to meet the requirements of the law to the BETA Council, Senior Staff and Branch Managers at least once annually.
The ethics training certificates are provided below for the most recently completed two-year time period which ended on December 31, 2010. As required, these records will be retained at least five years after completion of the training.
