Corrections Training Officer Seminar

The CTO Program - 5 Days


The Corrections Training and Evaluating Program is an extension of the law enforcement selection process. It combines pre-field training with objective evaluations to ensure that the standards of a competent corrections officer are met. This is a 40 – hour course designed for experienced correction officers to learn the “new job/task” of becoming a Corrections Training Officer – CTO. The program will emphasize the CTO’s role in teaching, training, coaching and evaluating the recruit officer as they “earn” the right to wear your department’s uniform. Each student will receive a Corrections Training and Evaluation manual for this course.
