Students receive certificates for participation and level completion.
This is good time credit taken off the end of the offender's sentence for participating in educational programs. Offenders may also be granted up to 90 days of credit for completing additional higher education degrees and exceptional meritorious service at the discretion of the Director. Certain substance abuse and vocational certification programs award up to 30 days of credit. Guidelines need to include specifics such as how much participation is required, and how advancing in levels would be measured and documented. Paying student fees and examiners costs for GED testing in the rural camps through the Inmate Welfare Fund.
