abstract: 'Prior research shows employment is an important component of desistance,
but there is mixed evidence regarding the effectiveness of prison-based
education programs. Therefore, this study examines whether participation
in vocational education programs while incarcerated improves recidivism
and post-release employment outcomes. In addition, the study controls
for the timing of release to examine whether recidivism and employment
outcomes varied during the COVID-19 pandemic. Observable selection bias
was reduced by using propensity score matching to create similar
treatment and comparison groups. After matching, there were no
differences in any outcome between those who obtained vocational
certificates and the comparison group. The results demonstrate the
importance of accounting for selection bias in evaluations of education
and employment programs. It is recommended that career-focused
educational programs incorporate the risk-needs-responsivity model and
the continuum of care principle, build relationships with community
employers, and assist with practical barriers to employment.'
