Hello and great question.
To become a parole officer, you should have obtained a bachelor degree, best in behavioral science or criminal justice related field. You can apply to different populations that you want to qirk for, be in juveniles or adults if different genders. Some cases, you can ask to meet with some of the probation officers by contacting the local Justice system so that you can get a day in the life experience, what are the pros and cons, and potential expectations.
Hope this helps!
