CREATE A LEARNING ENVIRONMENT
that Encourages Growth and Development
Professionalism is critical for all criminal justice professionals – but perhaps no more so than for correctional and jail staff. Left alone to monitor and supervise inmates, corrections staff must be well-trained and exhibit integrity in order to handle and manage the myriad of situations staff find themselves in on a daily basis.
But how can you develop your staff into the professionals you need – in a timely and cost effective manner?
Training and development isn’t a “once a year” event, or something that should be left to the academy. Every correctional staff member can be a trainer, and every day has opportunities for training and development. Whether in formal classroom settings, through Field Training Supervision, or hands on coaching – growing and developing your staff into the team you need and know they can be.
This online course explores ways you can build, grow and develop your team through excellent training, thoughtful mentoring, and positive supervision.

What People Are Saying about This?
Very well-versed on the topic. Excellent presentation style. Great slides!”
All the topics were relevant and definitely struck a chord with a few staff members. I enjoyed this whole presentation.
I do like the scenarios because it gives tangible ideas of ‘if A, then B’ which is what our people are looking for.
It was a great point to stress how important effective training can help corrections staff.
I started in the CJ field fresh out of college and this information would have been very appreciated. It’s also a nice refresher to remind us of tactics to look for.

The price is $149 for each student. We do have discounts available for JCH Members and group purchases involving three or more personnel. Please contact aaron@justiceclearinghouse.com for details
But I Already Work Full-time… Would I Have Time?
We hear you. Only you know about the demands of your job or if you can “juggle” the demands of work, family, and school. That said, online courses are a great way to get the knowledge you need for career growth, without being tied down to a specific schedule, being out of the office for days at a time, or burdened by the expense of high priced tuition or travel costs. Split up into bite sized components, each course section can be completed over a lunch break in a week’s time – sometimes less. And don’t worry: if life gets in the way, you’ll have a whole year to complete the lessons on your own schedule.
