If you've ever considered becoming a correction officer now is the time to apply. The Kern County Sheriff's Office will be holding three STC Core Academies this year for detention deputies.
According to KCSO recruits at the academy will receive training and experience to develop the skills needed to become an entry-level corrections officer.
To be eligible to apply you must be 18 or older, have a California driver's license and high school diploma or GED. You also must have a clean record and be able to pass a test and oral interview among other requirements.
There are multiple testing dates coming up in February and March. To reserve a seat or for additional questions, email rtc@kernsheriff.org or call 661-868-1677. Please see attached fliers regarding the requirements and cost of the academy.
