Which description matches an auxiliary correctional officer?

• A. Auxiliary Correctional Officer
• B. Certified Correctional Officer
• C. Administrative Confinement
• D. Single Cell

Answer: (A)

An auxiliary correctional officer is a support staff role that assists certified officers under supervision. This position is not a fully trained, credentialed officer but a helper who may assist with security tasks and other duties as approved and supervised. The description that fits is the actual designation of the role itself—the term "Auxiliary Correctional Officer" identifies the person as the auxiliary staff member. The other options refer to something else entirely: a certified correctional officer is a fully trained and sworn role, administrative confinement is a housing or disciplinary status, and a single cell is a housing unit.
