This 36-hour program focuses on the basic skills and competencies jail administrators need to effectively meet this responsibility.

This program covers ten key elements in jail administration:

  1. Managing risk
  2. Using jail standards to establish and assess operations
  3. Developing and assessing policy and procedure
  4. Determining staffing needs
  5. Managing the workforce
  6. Managing inmate behavior
  7. Managing the budget
  8. Developing a fire, safety, and sanitation plan
  9. Assessing operations
