Correctional Intervention Techniques (TIMC) is an AEC continuing-education program at Campus Notre-Dame-de-Foy preparing students to work in provincial and federal correctional settings, transition houses and youth centres, delivered over four sessions totalling roughly sixteen months. The curriculum develops competencies in criminology, law, psychology, stress management and crisis intervention, including techniques for working safely with potentially violent individuals, taught by instructors with experience in federal and provincial corrections. Training combines simulation-based scenarios, tours of facilities at different security levels, and a substantial internship placement within a correctional or related institution; strong internship performance can lead to prompt hiring. It suits adult learners who believe in the social reintegration of people who have offended, manage stress well, maintain good physical condition, work effectively in teams, and bring emotional balance and self-confidence to the work. Admission requires an interview and knowledge-based evaluation, along with appropriate prior schooling or a professional diploma (DEP).
