Employment Retention Inventory Validation
The National Institute of Corrections (NIC) is soliciting proposals from organizations, groups, or individuals to enter into a cooperative agreement for a 24-month period to begin no later than September 15, 201 3. Work under this cooperative agreement will involve the evaluation of the Employment
Retention Inventory (ERI), which supports the case management efforts of workforce development practitioners.
Specifically, the goal of this project is to determine whether the ERI effectively identifies the precursors, obstacles, and personality traits that influence an offenderÂ’s separation from the workforce.
In addition, this project will explore the relationship between offender employment retention and recidivism.
The major deliverables of this project include (1) the use of a system to capture and evaluate data and (2) a written report that summarizes project findings, recommendations, and potential next steps.
This project will be a collaborative venture with the NIC Community Services Division.
