The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that employment for corrections officers will grow by 16 percent over the next several years-much more rapidly than the average for all occupations-and that job opportunities will increase in the private sector as state and federal corrections agencies increasingly use private prisons. Peterson's Master the Corrections Officer Exam provides the most comprehensive review available for those interested in working in the prison system, including 6 full-length practice tests with detailed answer explanations, an extensive review of the officer screening process, an overview of the typical officer training process, all-new information on job requirements, and expert advice on how to seek and apply for positions in the field.
