Prison Management Certificate Program

Ohio Northern University will conduct a two-year prison management certificate program for prison administrators from Saudi Arabia that will begin this summer.

Ohio Northern will offer 30 prison management professionals, who already have bachelor’s degrees and training, the opportunity to study the English language and criminal justice in Ohio Northern University’s Department of History, Politics and Justice.

These professionals will come to ONU to study corrections and prison management to learn about and experience “best practices” in the United States and prepare them to provide leadership in reforming their own system when they return to Saudi Arabia.

While at ONU, the students will have formal course work and practical experience opportunities, weekend seminars and many on-site visits with professionals in the field. The program will include an internship and they will also have the opportunity to study at The Washington Center.
