What would the impact be if incarcerated people could re-enter society trained on some of the most in-demand skills in the country? If they had the ability to start earning immediately upon release? If correctional facilities could offer a safe and risk-free education?
Over the past few decades, demand for heavy equipment operators has soared. And now, with the advent of simulation training technology, preparing people for these roles is faster, safer, and more affordable than ever.
When working to reduce recidivism, many correctional facilities face an uphill battle. Incarcerated individuals may have a limited education, while facilities need training plans that keep individuals safe and secure. With many high-paying careers requiring years of study, and many trades requiring hands-on practice with dangerous equipment, it can be challenging to find options that provide a meaningful path forward. Heavy equipment operator (HEO) training, completed on a simulator, addresses all of these needs simultaneously. In this ebook, we’ll explore how this approach has emerged as a compelling answer to the practical challenges of reducing recidivism.
