Criminal Justice professionals train their minds and bodies to promote community wellbeing and help combat crime. Students will learn about human behaviour, criminology, communication, sociology, community policing, the criminal justice system, criminal law, policing interventions, restraint techniques, and emergency response. Meaningful opportunities to "serve and protect" are awaiting students.

As a graduate of the Criminal Justice: Police Foundations program, students may find employment with municipal, provincial, military and federal police services, as well as related enforcement roles in a variety of environments, including government departments, industry and private agencies. The program prepares students for employment opportunities and career success at all levels of policing and related criminal justice professions. The Criminal Justice: Police Foundations program was designed in collaboration with the Atlantic Police Academy and provides students with a foundational knowledge in policing. To pursue a career in policing students must apply and be accepted to a recognized Police Training facility.
