BJA Correctional Training Academy Project
Homepage > BJA Correctional Training Academy Project
Background
The Moss Group (TMG) is committed to supporting the development of essential skills and knowledge needed to reflect the unique and demanding challenges of training today’s corrections workforce. Through the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) initiative, Improving Institutional Corrections Academy Training, TMG conducted a national scan consisting of on-site observations, surveys, and curriculum evaluations. TMG examined training academies’ focus, content, and quality and developed guidance for building and supporting correctional staff to increase public safety by improving outcomes across the corrections community.
This page provides the resources developed from this initiative to inform and enhance knowledge within correctional training.
