Page Title: Professional Certification Program

"ACTIVE MILITARY - - Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Support (DANTES) has agreed to pay part or all Certification-related fees for qualified active military personnel. Information at: www.dantes.doded.mil

"VETERANS - - The Veterans Administration (under the GI Bill) has agreed to pay part or all of the Certification-related fees for qualified former military personnel. However, because a test must be in existence for two years before it can be approved, only the four original certifications - - CCE, CCM, CCS, CCO - - are currently covered. [On the two year anniversary of the CCE/Juv, CCM/Juv, CCS/Juv, CCO/Juv, CCN, CCN/M, CCM/STG, and CCS/STG tests, ACA will request approval.] The VA will reimburse veterans retroactively from 11/23/2004, our original submission date. More information at: www.gibill.va.gov

"CIVILIANS - - Some federal, state, regional, local agencies/facilities will pay part or all of the Certification-related fees for personnel willing to participate in the Corrections Certification Program. Contact your training/personnel staff for details in regard to your agency/facility."
