Correctional Officer Applicant Testing

The Sheriff’s office allows candidates to test year-round for the position of corrections deputy. Correctional officers are required to be at least 21 years of age at the time of employment and have no felony or certain misdemeanor convictions (a full list of the disqualifying misdemeanor convictions can be found on the ILETSB webpage: https://www.ptb.illinois.gov/resources/decertification/). Upon employment, correctional officers are required to live in Champaign County or a surrounding county bordering Champaign County.

Starting salary in 2022 for a correctional officer is approximately $44,491 in the first year, $47,029 after a year of service, and $51,958 by five years of service. (This contract is still being negotiated and the salary will likely increase for 2023.)

ENTRY-LEVEL APPLICANTS

To fill out an application and schedule a test, go to https://www.nationaltestingnetwork.com . This is an offsite link, select Corrections and sign up for the Champaign County Sheriff’s Office.

Upon completion of the entry level exam, all candidate scores are automatically forwarded to the Champaign County Sheriff’s Office. Candidates who attain a passing score on the entry level exam will be placed on the department’s eligibility list.

National Testing Network is a service provided to conduct entry level testing in a standardized, professional environment.
