The High-Performance Correctional Facility “Gary Cornelius is a passionate instructor, driven to provide real-world, actionable knowledge to his readers and students. His extraordinary career informs every chapter and section of this thorough resource, with not only his own experience, but current, evidence based, and practical information for the working corrections officer." From one of the acknowledged leaders in correctional training, this unique collection of inspirational essays on law, security, behavior, duty, safety, and professional conduct is designed for jail and prison administrators, supervisors, and correctional trainers seeking to build staff skills, knowledge, and professionalism. Corrections has come a long way. Officers are better educated, better trained, and more professional than ever. They are held to a higher standard, too. Correctional officers are not just “guards”—security is still the top priority, but COs must also function as first responders, mediators, referees, mentors, counselors, and psychologists. Thanks to research, we know more now about how incarceration affects inmates—and staff. too. The correctional officer must understand and be prepared to deal with all of these potent forces.
Based on the author's forty years' experience as jail supervisor and profesional trainer, The High-Performance Correctional Facility addresses the full range of challenges that face correctional officers today, in brief, lively, thought-provoking commentaries managers can adapt for use with veteran and new officers alike.
