Participants in Corcraft's Optical Program Pass Nationally-Recognized Exam

Eleven Incarcerated Individuals at Wallkill Correctional Facility currently participating in Corcraft's Correctional Industries Optical Program passed the American Board of Opticianry (ABO) exam. This exam is the recognized standard that leads to optical certification, which is nationally recognized and provides a platform to pursue a career as a NYS Licensed Optical Technician. Additionally, participants who have two years in the program and pass the exam can apply for Limited Credit Time Allowance, which may result in time reduced from their sentence.
