Juvenile Probation Officer

As an intern with the Allied Universal/ SCAD Security, I will obtain the range of training in the areas of car and bike patrol, foot patrol, Vehicle Access control, public safety, facility and campus monitoring, dispatcher and health aid and precautions. This experience will help provide myself with the basic skills of security and safety. I believe, this will be essential in the field I want to join. I would like to join the police force by becoming a Juvenile Probation Officer, so that I will be able to motivate the youth to escape that lifestyle before it’s too late.
