Welcome to New Mexico Junior College
and the Division of Public Safety.

New Mexico Junior College is committed to providing superior academic and vocational training for those individuals pursuing careers in public safety. To that end, we offer complete on-line and on-site academic programs in Criminal Justice and Paralegal Studies. Additionally we conduct sanctioned training academies for individuals interested in achieving state certification as law enforcement or corrections officers.

Each of these training academies is a full-time program structured around state mandated competencies. All instructional areas are taught by experienced and certified personnel, including line officers, superiors, criminal justice practioners and other state certified professional trainers in specialized topical areas. All individuals who successfully complete either academy will receive college credit hours which can be applied to either the Associate in Arts or Associate in Applied Science degrees.

There is an increasing national and statewide demand for qualified and well educated law enforcement and corrections officers, as well as many state related criminal justice positions. I invite you to look through our website and see what we have to offer!
