This is a "Fujitive of Justice" charge...a lot of times a person on parole that bailed.
In the USIn nearly all states parole officers must go through some kind of training. Certification varies from state to state. Some are full peace officers with arrest authority over anyone. Others are limited to just those they supervise and some do not have any law enforcement responsibilities at all.
Yes. Parole officers do not necessarily HAVE to be assigned to your particular case to supervise you. That would be like saying that a police officer can't make an arrest unless it is on the street he normally patrols.

When you do report to your parole officer, he'll arrest you.
Yes, parole officer are law enforcement officers with full police powers in NJ. The difference is their day to day duties. Parole officers primary job duty is to supervise parolees under parole supervision. That means to make sure the person under supervision is complying with the conditions imposed by the State Parole Board before they were released. Most parole officers spend their time filing administartive charges (parole violations) on violators, but at times new charges (family, friends, or on the parolee) are unavoidable.
Parole officers seldom violate their parolees.
To figure out how much time is left on parole.
A warrant for your arrest will be issued - and seeing that it is parole that may get revoked.
Police officers can arrest you
If you are charged with a federal crime, found guilty, and sentenced to a federal prison - if you are subsequently released on parole, it will be FEDERAL PAROLE, and you will be supervised by federal parole officers.
Parole officers in Maine look like plain clothes cops---they dress however they want. I don't know if its the same everywhere. I think it is though because parole officers dressing in normal clothes gives them an edge--they come knocking and your dumb roomate thinks it's just a normal person and ANSWERS the door. If parole officers wore a uniform, you'd see them coming a mile away and shut off the lights and close the shades. :)
