Prompt

Now that you’ve reviewed the resources for the second half of this module, you have a better understanding of the expectation of high standards in the criminal justice profession. In this 350- to 500-word journal post, address the following:

• Choose one career from each of the three components of the criminal justice system (policing, courts, and corrections).
• Summarize, in approximately 50 words, each career including its professional standards.
• Explain how the three careers represent the component they belong to. For example, if your suggested career is a victim rights advocate, which component (policing, courts, corrections) does this career most closely align to, and how is it representative of the goals or mission of that component?
• Choose one current trend in criminal justice and explain how it impacts one of the careers you have identified.

Specifically, the following rubric criteria must be addressed:

1. Choose a career from each of the three components of the criminal justice system.
2. Summarize each career (including its professional standards).
3. Explain how the three careers work together.
4. Determine a current trend that might relate to the one of the careers you have chosen.
