Basic Law Enforcement Training (BLET) from Durham Tech equips students with skills for entry-level law enforcement jobs in state, county, or private sectors.
Durham Tech has announced the hiring of Jerry Jones, former Director of Career Services and Workforce Development at Pitt Community College, who will lead the College’s Center for Workforce Engagement.
Jones will lead a Center focused on providing high-quality customized training, small business support, and apprenticeship, internship and other work-based learning experiences for students. The Center is tasked also with ensuring strong relationships between the College and employers, county economic development leadership, and economic and workforce development organizations.
Jones received his Master of Science in Managerial Leadership and Bachelor of Science in Management from National-Louis University in Virginia. He started his career in engineering and telecommunications and worked in the advanced manufacturing sector before joining Pitt Community College. At Pitt, he led the College’s work on customized training and career services, developed apprenticeships, and managed relationships with companies in the utilities, advanced manufacturing and life sciences sectors, among others.
He joins Durham Tech at a time of major regional growth and employment opportunities in life sciences, IT, skilled trades, advanced manufacturing and health care. The College has made commitments to meet the workforce needs in these areas and to support the economic and social mobility of Durham and Orange County residents.
Students from more than 100 countries take classes at Durham Tech, and our student life brings us together. The College has a number of clubs and organizations to help you meet new friends and start lifelong relationships.

Durham Tech is deeply committed to providing accessible, free arts experiences for all students, many of whom are from underserved minority communities. The College prioritizes connecting students with arts and cultural opportunities they otherwise might not be able to access. To institutionalize these commitments, Durham Tech formed a Viva the Arts Committee in 2000, co-led by Library and Foundation personnel. Irene Laube and Lou Rollins (both now retired from Durham Tech) were among the founders of Viva the Arts.
This 324-hour hybrid course is designed to prepare the student to become a certified Certified Cardiovascular Technologist (CCT).
Long before he was investigating crime scenes with his K9, Renzo, Justin Long was a young kid growing up on his family farm in Roxboro with herds of cattle, vegetable rows, and a bell that rang for dinner.
His family called it Bloomsdale – 120 acres of farmland where three generations lived. There were six houses on the farm, all built by Long family hands. His parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins all grew up within walking distance of each other.
Days off didn’t exist. There was always something that needed to be done, and that instilled a strong work ethic in Long.
“It was a big thing in our family. You work. You support yourself, you support your family, and you do what you can to support your community,’” he said.
That work ethic has served the 36-year-old well as the new Dean of Human Services and Public Safety at Durham Technical Community College.
