Unions and Associations
Some corrections officers are members of the National Correctional Employees Union, American Federation of State, County & Municipal Employees, and other unions. In addition, membership in organizations such as the American Correctional Association or the American Jail Association provides access to information about the industry, certification and training, job boards, conferences, and more.
