What You Will Be Doing:

Building a future for yourself in a career that provides security in benefits, salary, abundant room for personal growth and advancement, as well as being a member of a team that has long been a pillar in our community. You will be working a week on week off schedule, which includes shifts of 6am to 6pm one week, then after your week off, you’ll rotate to 6pm to 6am, alternating weeks going forward. That means you are only scheduled 6 months of the year! Also, with this type of schedule, when you take a week’s vacation you will have 3 consecutive weeks off.

Upon your arrival at the facility and after your first week of orientation, you immediately start your role as supervisor of inmates with your Field Training Officer working by your side to learn skills for the care and custody, security, and reformation of inmates.

During the first 12-14 months of employment, new Correctional Officers are provided structured field training within the facility and will attend a 7-week Correctional Officer Academy. After successfully completing the training and receiving the Alaska Police Standards Council (APSC) Correctional Officer Certificate, you will promote to the Correctional Officer 2 level.

Our Mission, Values, and Culture:

The mission of the Alaska Department of Corrections is to promote public safety. Our Division provides secure confinement, access to reformative programs and offender management planning that promotes successful community reentry.

Correctional Officers are the cornerstone to the Department's mission through their daily interaction with offenders. This daily interaction with offenders affords the Correctional Officers the opportunity to help people become better citizens more capable of functioning in society upon release, thereby helping to reduce the rate of recidivism within the State of Alaska.

## Express confidential interest

Alaska politics is a small world. If you can't be seen job-hunting, submit a sealed interest : the employer sees only your alias and pitch. Your name and contact stay sealed until they request an introduction and you approve it . Decline, and they never learn who asked.
