Training Section

Mission Statement

The primary mission of the Detention Training Section is enhancing the professionalism of the Harris County Sheriff's Office by providing ongoing training and education to its staff members. Entry-level trainees begin their training experience in a three week Basic County Corrections Course that covers all aspects of a detention officer's duties. All peace officers and detention officers are then encouraged to participate in a wide variety of courses ranging from legislatively mandated law enforcement classes to CPR and Sign Language. The Training Section is committed to excellence and instilling these values throughout the department.
