Topic: Everything Education / ACA supervisor certification worth it

I have nearly 20 years in a local Detention Center which is run by the sheriff’s office. I have chaired new employee oral boards. In my experience, Laterals come in at a higher rate, but it’s because they already have certification through the state’s accreditation. That said, every bit of extra experience and training is taken into consideration for the purposes of scoring and applicant. So 20 years of active service in corrections to include Gitmo and you want to go into civilian corrections upon retirement? God Bless you, I am so looking forward to being a Wal~Mart greeter.
