PA Department of Corrections

Becoming a corrections officer involves more than maintaining security—it's about making a real difference. The job requires strength, patience, and the ability to stay calm under pressure. You'll enforce rules, manage conflicts, and help with rehabilitation efforts that can change lives.

In speaking to this class, I can offer insight into the challenges and rewards of the career, share personal experiences, and provide a deeper understanding of the skills and mindset needed to succeed in this field. If you enjoy problem-solving, structure, and making an impact, this could be a fulfilling path for you.
