<p>This book merges scholarship with occupational development, this single comprehensive guidebook provides criminal justice students and readers alike with the necessary insight into potential careers, and provides instruction on what job seekers can expect in terms of training, advancement, earnings, job prospects, working conditions, relevant associations, and more. With near-constant advances in technology and greater social connectivity than ever before, criminals are keeping pace and using any means available to carry out their crimes. How is the criminal justice system handling crimes committed both on and offline, and who are these dedicated professionals fighting the good fight? The government and private agencies work together, from law enforcement agencies who apprehend criminals, to the court system that tries them, and the corrections system that houses them once they are convicted. Among those organizations, there are countless unique occupations, all of which work in tandem to achieve the same goal: deliver justice. Some occupations in the area of criminal justice are: Correctional Officers and Bailiffs; Emergency Management Directors; Judges and Hearing Officers; Lawyers; Paralegals and Legal Assistants; Police and Detectives; Private Detectives and Investigators; and Security Guards and Gambling Surveillance Officers. This title provides detailed and need-to-know information on various careers in this field, which is so vital to maintaining law and order in society. Each chapter provides a wealth of real-world information including A Day in the Life, Work Environment, Education &amp; Training, Earnings &amp; Advancement, Employment Outlook, and Conversations with Real Professionals, as well as contacts for more information. This series serves as a steppingstone in understanding specific careers and provides a wealth of information on the education and training needed with a look towards the future of the field with an informative employment outlook.</p>
