This depends on where they are being held.

This depends on where they are being held. Most long term facilities have many options for vocational and educational improvement. It could always be better, our advise is to get your inmate involved in all the programming the facility offers and if able, enroll them in college courses offered by legitimate universities under the "distance learning" programs.
