In episode 2 of the #VocTechFutures livestream, Ufi’s Patrick Dunn will be exploring how VocTech is being used to provide accessible, personalised and high-quality learning in the prison sector. As part of the session we will hear from two organisations delivering innovative VocTech solutions: Meganexus, who provide access to education and training technologies and content across the UK prison sector, and who are working with Ufi to bring learning into every prison cell in the country; and Niacro who are using VR to deliver immersive training in construction skills.

The discussion will spotlight how VocTech is being used to overcome the challenges of working in the prison environment and share insights into approaches and technologies that might be applied more widely. It will touch on how technology can improve access to learning in prisons, how learning can be better tailored and assessed to individual need using new technology, and how prisons and prisoners can use technology to find employment and career paths.
