Lake County Sheriff's Office Sheriff Frank Leonbruno issued the following announcement on Dec. 18.
The Certified Jail Officer certification is for front-line officers. Candidates are tested on their general knowledge of Jail Operations, Safety & Security, Professional & Legal Concepts, and Special Populations and Support Services. Certification provides documented evidence to the public that the individual was examined by an independent professional organization in the competency of general and management skills regarding operational practices in the field of local corrections. It not only elevates professional standards of jail operations by indicating that the individual has the proper job experience and body of knowledge, but also encourages continuing education,
professional growth, and a commitment to continue working in the local corrections profession.
We are extremely proud of Correction Officer Stewart who is only the 3rd Correction Officer in the State of Ohio to receive this certification. Great work Jacob !
