North Carolina Prison Education Consortium

The North Carolina Prison Education Consortium (NCPEC) is a statewide network that brings together colleges, universities, and partner organizations to strengthen, align, and expand high-quality higher education opportunities across North Carolina’s correctional facilities. Together with the NC Department of Adult Correction, NCPEC strengthens and supports postsecondary pathways that help incarcerated students enroll, persist, earn degrees, and prepare for a successful return to their communities.
