The job isn’t bad, learn inmates handbook and they can’t play with you. Remember inmates are like kids in kindergarten, tell them what to do and what not to do. If you follow that you’re not gonna have problems, very important core values. I’m my case I did t trust in coworkers they’re worst than inmates

Can you obtain tcole through the TDCJ? .. Can you please answer this I would appreciate.

No sir, we are unable to grant TCOLE certification because that is overseen by a separate state entity, the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement.

Actually, OIG requires new hires to have or be eligible for the TCOLE. So, if you can land an OIG trainee position (good luck, you most likely wont) then they can send you to get your TCOLE.

I am very interested in becoming a correctional officer in Texas. One question. During your TDCJ training, are you required to live in the dormitory of a training center (like in the army), or can you commute every day from home?
@TDCJvideos

Dormitories are offered as an option to cadets, but you are not required to live in the dormitory during your training experience. Many of our cadets commute to the training academy every day and we hope to see you there soon!

You can live in a dorm, but it's barely like the Army. For Region 1 it's at Sam Houston State University, in an old dorm building. Once you get to a unit, they'll have a waitlist for housing, or space in the officer dorms. There's rules, and they try to present themselves as a paramilitary organization, but it's a feeble attempt. Not entirely their fault though, with the governor on wheels stealing funds for his border stunts, after they just begged the state for help.

Does Correctional & Detention have the same training ? Because I applied for a Detention Officer position & I’m still curious to know how long Detention Officer training academy is and where it’s located or is it done at the county you apply to. Please Answer ASAP

TDCJ is a State Agency so Correctional Officers go thru a separate Academy cs a Detention/Correctional Officer at a Jail to work at a jail you would have to obtain a license from the TCOLE vs the State its provided from a separate agency and is State Runned but in all honesty depending on which county you are at Jails pay wayyyy better that State I started at $36,000 with TDCJ and with Atascosa County as a Corrections Officer I was started at $45,000 same benefits too but again depends on your County if not go work at a Federal Prison they pay much better

Most new CO's will not last a year because of bad supervisors (Lts.) that play favorites . People quit because of that. I love seeing TDCJ understaffed.

Is the written exam hard and will the instructors let you fail?
@ryanm7832

No. It's all very easy. But, if you have a bad attitude, repeatedly show up late, do something unsafe, etc you can be kicked out. If you get three demerits, you're done; 1 for being late, 1 for sleeping in class, 2 for repeated violations, or they can hit you with all 3 if you fk up real bad and do something extra stupid, like bring drugs to work.
