NCC’s Department Chair for Public and Safety Services, Nathan Mizell was recently awarded the Intermediate Law Enforcement Certificate from the North Carolina Department of Justice.

In order to recognize the level of competence of law enforcement officers serving governmental agencies within the State, to foster interest in college education and professional law enforcement training programs, and to attract highly qualified people into a law enforcement career, the Criminal Justice Education and Training Standards Commission established the Law Enforcement Officers’ Professional Certificate Program.

Under this program dedicated officers may receive statewide and national recognition for education, professional training, and on-the-job experience. Nathan Mizell has been with Nash Community College since August 2007. He earned an Associate in Applied Science degree from Pitt Community College, a Bachelor of Arts degree from North Carolina Wesleyan College and a Master of Science degree from Mountain State University. Mizell and his family reside in Bear Grass, NC.
