Background

15BFA023Q00000086/0001 Page 5 of 57

The Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) was established in 1930 to provide more progressive and humane care for Federal inmates, to professionalize the prison service, and to ensure consistent and centralized administration. The Federal prison system is a nationwide system of prisons and detention facilities for the incarceration of persons who have been sentenced to imprisonment for Federal crimes and the detention of persons awaiting trial in Federal court. The defined mission of the BOP is as follows:

It is the mission of the Federal Bureau of Prisons to protect society by confining offenders in the controlled environments of prisons and community-based facilities that are safe, humane, cost-efficient, and appropriately secure, and that provide work and other self-improvement opportunities to assist offenders in becoming law-abiding citizens.

As an agency under the Executive Branch of the United States Government, the BOP receives an annual appropriation of funds to accomplish its mission. The public trust demands that this annual appropriation be prudently managed. Monies spent to provide education to the inmate population must reflect the agency’s best efforts to obtain cost-effective services, consistent with community standards.

In 1996, the Bureau of Prisons standardized procedures to (1) select and fund new vocational/occupational training programs, (2) select and fund existing vocational/occupational training programs, and (3) update equipment for existing vocational/occupational training programs. The following Bureau of Prisons Program Statements, which are available electronically at www.bop.gov, are applicable to this contract and are incorporated by reference to the same effect as if they were given in full text.

1. Program Statement 5300.21 – Education, Training, and Leisure Time Program Standards.

2. Program Statement 5353.01 – Occupational Education Programs

3. Program Statement 1237.15 – Information Security

Place of Performance

Occupational training instruction will be performed at the Federal Prison Camp Bryan, 1100 Ursuline Ave, Bryan, Texas and/or on site at the post-secondary institution, vocational training, or industry-based school, as determined by the Supervisor of Education.

Schedule

Each is defined as one student's tuition for the certification program. The contractor will normally instruct 60 students per year.

Number of sessions may be adjusted upon agreement with the Supervisor of Education and the post-secondary institution, vocational training or industry-based school. Courses taken to complete the program will occur 5 days per week, excluding Federal Holidays.

Courses may occur between 7:30 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. Courses usually last 3 hours each and meet 2 times a day. These hours may be adjusted to meet the needs of the institution. For the tuition cost, the contractor will provide a comparable amount of class time to the

15BFA023Q00000086/0001 Page 6 of 57 inmate population comparable to community standards for students who attend the post-secondary institution, vocational training, or industry-based school. The contractor shall not exceed an estimated 35 hours per week.

Due to the nature of the correctional setting, delays in performance of work may be experienced. Such delays may include but are not limited to inclement weather, electrical or mechanical problems, or other security matters. When contract employees report to the institution but are unable to perform services due to such delays, the contractor will ensure the inmates receive education comparable to community standards. This may be in the form of extra self-study work or make-up sessions, which will be included in the tuition cost. If the contractor fails to provide education comparable to community standards, the Government may seek contractual remedy.

Education Background and Qualifications

The instructor will be a post-secondary institution, vocational training school or industry-based school employee with all qualifications required to instruct students in CERTIFIED NURSE ASSISTANT. The contract must be between FPC Bryan and a post-secondary institution, vocational training school or industry-based school that provides training for students to receive industry-recognized certification in CERTIFIED NURSE ASSISTANT.

The occupational education program must fall under the provider’s umbrella of accreditation and lead to transferrable credits resulting in a college certificate, A.A., A.A.S. or A.S. (Associate’s) degree. Industry-accepted certification is also acceptable. Providers must be accredited by a recognized accrediting agency.

The occupational education program must lead to a college certificate, A.A., A.S., A.A.S. or industry-recognized certificate qualifying inmates for at least an entry-level position of employment. Credits earned from the college certificate, A.A., A.S., or A.A.S. must be transferrable to a four-year college.

Four-year degree programs and programs in liberal arts/general studies are not authorized, although limited and specific courses of a liberal arts/general studies nature may be permitted if directly related to preparation for a specific occupation or vocation.

Supplies and Equipment

Textbooks will be provided by the post-secondary institution, vocational training, or industry-based school. Textbooks will be returned to the post-secondary institution, vocational training, or industry-based school at the end of the coursework. All necessary supplies and classroom materials that the contractor may routinely need shall be provided by the Education Department at the institution, except textbooks. If specific material is necessary for the contractor to provide the required programming, he or she shall forward their request to the Contracting Officer Representative (COR).

The contractor shall be expected to account for all material and supplies placed under his or her disposition.

As part of the program, contractor must ensure a partnership with an appropriate local medical facility is secured for inmates to complete all required clinical hours and/or other requirements to sit for licensure examination(s).

Marketable programs shall afford inmates the opportunity to gain in demand skills in a specific occupation, industry, or trade. The marketable program must qualify inmate graduates for at least an entry-level position in employment related to CERTIFIED NURSE ASSISTANT.

Scope of Performance

The Supervisor of Education shall determine the number of enrollments. FPC Bryan will pay tuition per student enrollment as determined by the Supervisor of Education. The VT coordinator will work with the post-secondary institution, vocational training school or industry-based school to provide accurate documentation of the progress of all students.

The post-secondary institution, vocational training school or industry-based school will provide a written curriculum which establishes measurable behavioral objectives and procedures. The curriculum must include clear criteria which establish minimum expectations for program completion, provisions for the assessment of student progress, must identify the hands-on competencies and must require the students to demonstrate them. The course will include core classes needed to attain a college certificate, an industry-accepted certificate and/or transferable credits toward an Associate in Arts degree (A.A.), an Associate in Science degree (A.S.), or an Associate in Applied Science degree (A.A.S.).
