Correctional institutions have long provided vocational programming to prepare inmates for successful transitioning into their communities. Yet recidivism, a common measure of correctional program effectiveness, remains high. Employers of ex-inmates cite lack of soft skills as the main impediment to durable employment. By embedding soft skill training into its curriculum, NCircle is using a novel method to change outcomes.

Learning Outcomes:
  • Challenges facing ex-inmates in seeking sustainable employment
  • Creating partnerships with employers
  • Measuring program effectiveness and how to track client progress
