The findings and content of this report concern the areas of primary certification training defined as entry-level law enforcement/criminal justice (e.g., non-supervisory uniformed patrol, non-supervisory uniformed correctional, non-supervisory telecommunications officer/operator duties). The three (3) areas of training pertinent to this study were as follows: 1) Basic Law Enforcement Certification Training ; 2) Basic Jail Certification Training (local detention as opposed to state level corrections) and; 3) Basic Telecommunications Officer Training. This project focused on a singular aspect of adult education, reading grade equivalency rates.
