3.3.7 Inmates, who had participated in a plumbing programme, claimed that they had not received any certification for the course which they had successfully completed. It is a problem in general that some of the programmes funded by Department of Labour, which appointed service providers that were not necessarily accredited, resulted in situations where offenders underwent training that was not recognised. However, this problem should be addressed by the fact that the funding is now being handled by Department of Education. In addition, from this year, DCS has started training assessors and moderators to ensure that all courses being presented are accredited and recognised.
