North Central Michigan College Announces Summer Corrections Officer Academy |
|
To help address the need for qualified corrections officers regionally and statewide, North Central Michigan College will host a four-week Local Corrections Officer Academy beginning July 18. Funding provided by Michigan Works! and Michigan Learning & Education Advancement Program grants will cover a portion or all of the $1,500 tuition.
Academy graduates will learn the skills necessary to maintain safety and security in a correctional facility. The program is open to both active sheriff’s deputies and corrections workers as well as pre-service recruits with no experience, explained Jim Cousino, North Central’s dean of career and technical education. The academy provides 160 hours of intensive training — the equivalent of a full semester’s classes — condensed into an accelerated program comprised of hands-on training, classroom demonstration and lecture.
To learn more or register for the academy, visit www.bit.ly/CorrectionsAcademy. To apply for MiLeap grant funding, contact your local Michigan Works! representative: Corey Busch at Networks Northwest, 231-347-5150, or Wendy Kitchen at Michigan Works! Northeast Consortium, 989-306-7117.
