Be part of an exciting and in-demand field. Our Community and Justice Services program looks at criminal justice through the lens of corrections and rehabilitation. Learn to work with individuals in the court system, during imprisonment and after release. After graduation, you may work as a correctional officer or help others re-enter society at a halfway house or other community agency.
Sheridan’s Community and Justice Services program gives you a strong foundation that gets you ready for the workplace. You’ll explore the social sciences, such as psychology, criminal law and criminology. You’ll learn through lectures, guest speakers and group activities. You’ll also have the opportunity to make connections with community agencies.
The Community and Justice Services program includes two field practicums. You’ll first have an interview to talk about your career interests. Then you’ll do a field placement in a community and justice agency. You could work at an adult institution, youth facility, community agency or residential facility. These practicums can be a great path to employment.

The Community and Justice Services program includes two practicum terms. You could work at an adult institution, youth facility, community agency or residential facility. These practicums can be a great path to employment.
Sheridan field placement agencies require a police record check for criminal offences, including a vulnerable sector check and a current acceptable record of immunization. Before your practicums, you’ll also need to become certified in Standard First Aid and CPR.
You'll be required to provide this documentation before the start of Semester 2 and directly to your field placement before the start of each placement. These certifications are all at your own expense. Students who cannot meet these requirements will not be able to complete field placement opportunities.
