NWR:Any correction officers that can answer my question?

Does anyone know if you must have 30 credits on the day you take this test? On the site it says they must have 30 credits but wondering if you must have 30 college credits on the day you take the actual test. TIA!!

For corrections officer trainee, it does not appear that you need any college credits.

After 12 months you can become a corrections officer
