CEDARVILLE, OHIO, Feb. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The state of Ohio is piloting a new criminal justice program unlike anything the United States has ever seen, and Cedarville University is at the core of this historic development.

The College to Law Enforcement Pathway Program, which accepted its first candidate enrollees in early 2022, exists to create a pool of pre-qualified, college-educated, mentored law-enforcement candidates for law enforcement agencies in Ohio.

The program was first introduced last year by Ohio Governor Mike DeWine, and it is a byproduct of the Governor’s implementation of the Office of Law Enforcement Recruitment. DeWine asked Dr. Patrick Oliver, director of Cedarville University’s criminal justice program, to serve as the lead consultant to the statewide office and the new academic program.

This elite honors program will pilot at Cedarville University and Central State University during the upcoming spring and fall semesters. The program, which includes 11 students in the first class, will be open to qualifying upper-class criminal justice majors, and participants will be guaranteed a job with a partnering law enforcement agency upon graduation.

"Students who graduate from this rigorous professional development program will have great potential to become Ohio's next generation of law enforcement leaders," said Governor DeWine. "In a time when many law enforcement agencies are struggling to recruit highly-qualified candidates, this program will create a pool of pre-qualified applicants with a strong understanding of criminal justice issues and the know-how to form positive relationships within their communities."
