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.
