    I think the vast majority of law enf agencies administer the poly or cvsa. Im aware of a few states that ban them totally though, Mass is one i believe.

    Sadly, it is mandatory under Connecticut law. You must pass a polygraph in order to become POST certified.

    I believe you're right. I think the poly can't be used for ANY employment/field in MA, not just LE.

    I've been polygraphed in two of the three agencies I worked for.

    I have been polyed and CVSAed (are those words? I think not.)

    Passed both, just told the truth.
    Helen Keller graduated from college with honors. She was blind and deaf. So what's your problem?

    My agency requires a polygraph in order to be hired. I have never had a CVSA though. Here are the qualifications for Florida: http://www.fdle.state.fl.us/cjst/off..._standards.htm.
