Congratulations to the 51th Graduating Class of the National Jail Leadership Academy
Thirty-seven men and women from 16 states graduated on November 15, 2024, as members of Class 50 of the National Jail Leadership Command Academy (NJLCA). The leadership program is a collaboration of the American Jail Association and the Correctional Management Institute of Texas and is held on the campus of Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas.
Through five days of instruction by veteran jail practitioners and through interaction with one another, graduates developed leadership skills that enable them to transition to senior leadership positions in their agencies successfully.
Pictured is the 50th Class of the National Jail Leadership Command Academy, faculty, and staff. The session was held June 24-28. 2024
