“To serve and protect”…this phrase will take on a new meaning when you enroll in the Criminal Justice program. This profession constantly demands thorough and up-to-date training for professional law enforcement personnel. The Criminal Justice program at Polaris Career Center is committed to providing you with the quality education and training needed to perform effectively in a wide variety of career positions within the criminal justice field.

“The teachers in the Criminal Justice program are amazing and supportive, and my classmates push me and inspire me to become the best that I can be. I have an amazing and promising future because of Polaris.”

You will be trained in the enforcement of the law and the protection of life and property in both the public and private sectors. Dressed in uniforms, you will assist Polaris Career Center, associate schools and the community at special events. Successful completion of this program may also lead to certification as a Certified Protection Officer and 911 Dispatcher. As a Criminal Justice student, you need to be physically fit, honest, respectful, caring and have good judgment. You should also be able to work in a team environment with minimal supervision. All students in this program must successfully pass a drug screen.
