The Integrated Education and Training (IET) in Corrections project, funded by the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Career, Technical, and Adult Education, has hosted design camps to help states with developing and implementing IET programs in corrections. This fall, the project will offer an opportunity for adult education providers who deliver services in jails to participate in a design camp. Technical assistance activities will include a pre-design camp virtual academy in October and November 2024, an in-person design camp in February 2025 (travel expenses covered by the project), and after design camp activities.
Join the IET in Corrections project team during Adult Education and Family Literacy Week to learn more about this upcoming opportunity!
