Robeson Community College is proud to announce that the recent cohort of students in the Detention Officer Certification Course at Robeson Community College has successfully completed the intensive five-week program, achieving a remarkable 100% pass rate on the state exam.

The Detention Officer Course is a comprehensive 192-hour program that prepares participants for certification to work in a Sheriff’s Office Detention Facility in North Carolina. The course includes a rigorous curriculum that prepares students with the necessary skills and knowledge to gain employment in this critical role within the criminal justice system.

“We are thrilled with the success of our students,” said Director Matt Dimery in a press release. “Their hard work and dedication truly reflect the quality of our program and their commitment to serving our community.”

The program’s next session is scheduled for Spring 2025. Dimery strongly encourages interested individuals to apply early, as spots are expected to fill quickly.

“The detention officer certification is an excellent opportunity for those looking to pursue a career in the criminal justice system and contribute positively to public safety,” Dimery added in a press release.
