Offering the largest library of educational, vocational and social-emotional learning programming in the industry, behavior management tools for facilities, and communication tools for incarcerated individuals, Edovo fosters a culture of rehabilitation while providing administration and staff with the tools to streamline facility operations and engage their incarcerated population. Users can now gain daily access to courses that lead to tangible achievements, K-12/GED courses, college credit, vocational certificates, and inspire better outcomes. These opportunities, blended with our unique incentive system that uses entertainment as a motivator, has led to an industry leading 80%+ week to week user engagement, more than double the industry average. Learners can take courses at their own pace, making the system ideal for all kinds of learning styles.
