With sheriffs from the Class of 2026 completing training at Justice Institute of B.C., more help is headed to the courthouse in Nanaimo.
In a press release, the B.C. Ministry of the Attorney General said 17 people graduated from the institute on June 8 and will begin working at courthouses across the province as part of the B.C. Sheriff Service. They underwent “rigorous academic, physical and scenario-based training” and are in the midst of on-the-job training with seasoned sheriffs.
