Program Overview

Consider the benefits of a career in corrections. One, you’re helping offenders make positive changes in their lives. Two, you’re helping make our communities safer. Three, you’re earning a great salary. Four, your skills are in demand.

Saskatchewan Polytechnic's Correctional Studies program will get you started in a law enforcement career in just two years. Our graduates are working in correctional institutions, youth facilities, healing lodges, drug treatment centres and community-based justice programs.

Correctional Studies is a two-year diploma program offered at Saskatchewan Polytechnic in Prince Albert.

We emphasize a hands-on approach to learning, so you’ll get both correctional theory and practical skills. You’ll learn from instructors who have experience working in the justice system. They’ll guide you in:

  • Criminology and criminal justice system
  • Case management, communication and problem-solving skills
  • Ethics and professionalism in corrections
  • Managing conflict, aggression and violence
  • The role of community corrections, youth justice initiatives, restorative justice
  • Suicide intervention and prevention techniques
  • Working with offenders from diverse cultural backgrounds
