The program provides an interview with John Hattery, Director, Workforce Training and Employment for the Home Builders Institute, National Association of Homebuilders. The Association maintains job training and employment programs throughout the country as they relate to the building trades. The Association maintains that their programs successfully train and employ thousands of offenders each year. John was joined by Wil Parker, Senior Analyst at CSOSA  who is in charge of developing job and training opportunities.

The discussion centered on what it takes to successfully train and employ offenders. The attitudes of offenders while on the job was the primary point of consideration.
