Course Description
Corrections is a business that relies on written communication. Accurate and complete written reports provide the documentation that helps to complete the agency mission. When documentation is not complete, the result may be lost time, confusion, and costly personnel and legal proceedings.
In addition to a structured classroom presentation and a group discussion, a scenario-based exercise at the end gives participants the opportunity to practice what they learned with the benefit of positive, motivational feedback from the trainers.
