Shared-Time Programs

Law Enforcement

The Law Enforcement program has been developed to better prepare students for work in the future through the linking of public law enforcement and private security services, a community-based organization, and community college.  Students will participate in classroom and career related experiences at "on site" locations.  Learning will occur in the classroom and in the community as students actively participate in various aspects of law enforcement and private security.  Upon completion, students will be prepared for employment in private security, cadet status with a municipal police department or sheriff's office, higher education and military careers in Law Enforcement.

Entry Level Positions: Security Officer.
