What They're Saying

“It’s been a great program from day one. Edovo provides a comprehensive learning platform that the inmates truly enjoy using. The best part, and what separates Edovo from all other vendors, is that everything for the inmate is free.”

“I have never been able to sit in my office while the students are in the dayroom. They are quiet, focused, and engaged.”

“Thank you so much Edovo! I am learning so much from your programs that I’m excited to wake up each morning and continue my journey toward being a productive member of society. Last year while incarcerated without tablets, I received 64 infraction tickets. This year, because of the Edovo program, I have not received any infractions at all. I’m excited about learning now, and I feel more.”
