CF 000 - Correctional Officer
The Criminal Justice: Correctional Officer curriculum contains a broad range of courses designed to equip jailers and guards with the knowledge and understanding of inmate processing, maintaining order in the jail, and invoking disciplinary measures when necessary. In addition, a jailer may also perform cell searches for drugs and other contraband, inspect the facility for cleanliness and stand guard during exercise periods. This training program, which may be completed over two semesters, provides jailers and guards with knowledge of emergency procedures, mental health and first aid, defensive tactics and use of force, ethics and legal issues, investigations, and personal development, among other items. Also incorporated into this curriculum are the classes required for an individual to meet Tennessee POST requirements.
