The Criminal Justice associate degree curriculum is designed to provide students with a solid base for additional study at a four-year institution and for entry-level employment in federal, state, local or private criminal justice agencies. Completion of the law enforcement certificate program exceeds the minimum P.O.S.T. requirements for entry-level employment as peace officers. Completion of course requirements listed for the law enforcement reserve officer provides students with the knowledge and skills in excess of those required by the California Commission on P.O.S.T. for entry-level service as a reserve officer. The Law Enforcement Custody and Advanced Officer course offerings are designed to upgrade the skills and knowledge required for employed peace officers as well as to provide knowledge and skills based on new legal and/or judicial rulings.
