Hi Phyliss, 

 

I have GED classes in three correctional locations in Central Texas and
another class that is strictly for youth on probation.  Teachers do
different thinks with inmates at different sites.  I will forward your
request to them and see if they can offer you some tips.  It might be
helpful if they could email you directly rather than to the list.  If you
agree, please forward your email address to me.  Thanks.

Does anyone work in a jail or correctional setting ??? 

 

I am the new Vocational Transition Specialist for the Mecklenburg County
Sheriff's Department. I am looking for best practices tools and resources in
emotional quotient, social skills, in light of employment readiness to
determine what classes are most needed for our population as they prepare to
re-enter or enter the workplace with their present charges or convictions.
