Tennessee Correctional Academy Graduation

Friday, September 21, 2018 | 03:56pm

Tullahoma –After weeks of training, the Tennessee Department of Correction welcomed a new class of Correctional Officers into the workforce today.  The Tennessee Correction Academy graduated 59 people from our Basic Correctional Officers Training program.

Shannon Green, Assistant Warden at Bledsoe County Correctional Complex gave today’s keynote address.  Green took the time to encourage the new officers by reminding them to not give up, never stop learning and to honor the TDOC oath.

Several officers were honored with special awards and one even received a college scholarship.  Today’s graduation is one of many set to take place throughout the rest of the year as TDOC continues to employee and empower officers as they build a career in correction.
