What does Pearson offer for correctional education programs?

• Tools for continuing education. Pearson believes that knowledge is power, and we work with correctional institutions to instill that belief into their own education programs. Helping students to pass the GED, for example, can decrease recidivism and afford them the opportunity to be productive members of society, equipped with the educational tools they need to progress and succeed. Pearson provides online learning tools and content for inmates wishing to continue with learning and take the next step in their education.
• Literacy enhancement programs. Literacy is the cornerstone of education, and Pearson provides the basic building blocks from which students may begin or continue their educational journey. For those students testing below the Grade 6 or 7 levels in literacy function, Pearson offers additional skill-building components.
• Job training & vocational skill-building resources. At a certain level, simply providing instruction isn’t enough. Pearson believes in a well-rounded approach to education that brings learning full-circle, from the transfer of knowledge in a classroom or self-study setting, to the practice and implementation of new skills in order to prepare for a vocation or job. Partner with Pearson to help prepare students for whatever their next step may be.
