The primary responsibility of a correctional officer is to monitor, supervise, and interact with incarcerated offenders and prepare them to become law-abiding citizens after serving their sentences. You will learn the skills you need to ensure the safety and well-being of inmates, yourself, and your colleagues.
Learn how to supervise inmate movement, use control tactics appropriately, and how to use Taser and other control devices. You will study the principles of human relations, sociology, and psychology; communications techniques, including how to brief visitors and criminal justice professionals entering the institution; extracting inmates from cells and conducting security checks; how to conduct safety equipment checks; and how to draft daily logs and reports.
The program also includes practice on a driving course and the use of force/control skills, as well as communications and mental health training. You will receive crisis intervention training and earn a de-escalation certification. Academic components include coursework in sociology, psychology, and law.
As part of the Corrections Officer program, all cadets participate in on-the-job training at provincial or federal correctional facilities in Atlantic Canada. This real life experience offers students the opportunity to use the skills and knowledge they have acquired and prepares them for a career in corrections.
Students in the Correctional Officer program are required to live in residence for the duration of their training, except when they are in on-the-job training.
