Workforce Solutions for the criminal justice industry
Education enhances preparedness
The importance of your work cannot be underestimated — it’s essential to keeping the peace on a local, national or global scale. While managing resources to enforce laws, you must also ensure that the criminal justice professionals who combat daily threats are prepared for future challenges.
All of your responsibilities must be achieved despite budgetary constraints, which often means you must do more with less.
Becoming an Education Partner of University of Phoenix gives your staff access to education specific to the criminal justice field, as well as complementary knowledge like management and technology.
Whether you want to educate your front-line police or probation officers, supervisors or managers — the Workforce Solutions team can help. We create pathways to sharpen skills needed for jobs today and broaden skill sets so staff can take on other responsibilities — all while preparing police staff for a future in and outside the industry.
Our faculty members explain how principles work in practice because they have an average of 19 years of experience in criminal justice and security fields and are in positions such as special agent, district attorney, chief of police, sheriff and warden.
