Join the Michelson 20MM Foundation and Cerro Coso Community College on April 6th to discuss what training is effective for faculty and institutions who are gearing up for federal Pell Grant restoration. The conversation will look at pedagogy in a correctional facility, building rapport with students while maintaining mandated policies in HEP programs, understanding inherent carceral environment demands on students, and using open educational resources to lower educational costs.
The expansion of national access to Higher Education in Prison (HEP) programming has become a priority as Pell Grant eligibility for incarcerated students is being reinstated after 26 years. With the Department of Education to begin implementation by July 2023, it is critical to provide faculty training and professional development programs that will ensure high-quality programming in prison.
Speakers include:
Andrew Beckett, Associate Dean, University College, The University of Iowa
Erin Corbett, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Second Chance Educational Alliance, Inc.
Peter Fulks, Associate Professor, Administration of Justice Department Chair, and POST Academy Director; Cerro Coso College
Alec Griffin, Professor of Anthropology and Sociology, Prison Faculty Lead, Cerro Coso College
