Not a bad idea but who is going to pay for it? The US is not Germany our police forces get the vast majority of their funding from sales and property taxes not state and or federal income taxes. Many states don't even have state income taxes.and start to believe in a well trained (3 years) police
Each state sets it's own training standards. Most if not all states have a Peace Officer Standards of Training Commission. Since approximately 1980 California went from a minimum of four hundred hours of training to something like eight hundred hours. Other states may very well mandate less training.
As a mere security guard I knew not to put my knee on a suspect's neck for almost eight minutes. We even knew not to lay a suspect on his chest once we handcuffed him.
