A person who has been convicted as a felon in the US cannot qualify to be a corrections officer. As the world works, however, there are thousands of cases where correction officers have committed felonies and have lost heir jobs, even perhaps pensions.

A convicted felon could earn a degree in criminal law or criminal justice, but would be ineligible for hire as a corrections officer. Corrections officers occasionally have to handle firearms, and convicted felons are forbidden from possessing firearms.
