Jail Administration Training and Technical Assistance

Jail administrators have an important role in ensuring that jail operations are conducted in a safe, secure, humane, and legal manner.

The goal of the Jail Administration program is to provide jail administrators with information and tools that can be used to fulfill this role.

must have knowledge and skills in a wide variety of areas to oversee operations and manage specific functions.

Each module of the current program focuses on specific administrative responsibilities and tools including:
action planning; using jail standards; managing risk; developing policy and procedure; determining staffing needs; managing the workforce; managing inmate behavior; developing a fire, safety and sanitation plan and; assessing jail operations.

Objective Jail Classification is the process of identifying the risks, needs and appropriate housing assignments of every inmate entering a local facility.

NIC sponsors two professionally validated models, the point additive model and the decision tree model, to be used by practitioners at no cost.

The current curriculum is based on these two models.

The NIC Jails Division is seeking one (1) qualified applicant to revise and update the current Objective Jail Classification class, administer the delivery of (4) Jail Administration training programs and up to ten (10) technical assistance services to requesting jails.
