I was looking for more information on doctorate programs in Criminal Justice. So, I went and scoured the Net for the best Doctorate / PhD programs in Criminal Justice and related fields. I went to the Temple University site and inadvertently stumbled upon the following information:
Temple University is pleased to announce the availability of the 2009 Distance-Learning Courses offered by the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency (PCCD) and the Deputy Sheriffs’ Education and Training Board. The enrollment period begins February 1, 2009 and continues through July 31, 2009. There is no tuition cost for the training. A Temple University Certificate of Completion and Transcript of Training are issued to each deputy, and a copy to his/her Sheriff, at the end of the enrollment period for each course successfully completed.
As far as I can tell, this program is only available to the Sheriff Deputies in the State of Pennsylvania. But, even though the scope of the program may be geographically limited, the opportunity to get additional training from one of the best Criminology institutions (at no cost) is outstanding.
If you would like more information please visit Temple University’s Website.
In the future, I plan on getting more information about these and similar programs from other colleges and universities.
