Students from Nash, Franklin, Edgecombe, Johnston, and Warren County Sheriff\u2019s Offices recently completed Detention Officer training at Nash Community College. The certification includes 179\u00a0hours of instruction designed to train qualified participants to function as officers in detention facilities. The course is governed by the North Carolina Sheriffs\u2019 and\u00a0North Carolina Criminal Justice Education and Training Standards Commissions.<\/p>\n
Personnel from Nash County Sheriff’s Office were part of the training as they work towards “dual certification” for all members. With dual certification, the Nash County Sheriff’s Office deputies will also become certified as detention officers and detention officers will participate in deputy training.\u00a0 The department says this will assist in the day-to-day operations of the entire Sheriff’s Office because it will allow members to assist where needed.<\/p>\n
