Socrates Software has entered an exclusive partnership with US-based company Track Group, a global leader in offender tracking and monitoring services.

The United States has the largest prison population in the world, with over 2 million Americans incarcerated. Roughly 600,000 of them return to communities each year with limited access to tools that support their reintegration.

Track Group and Socrates aim to change that by providing education, life skills, and vocational training to prisoners, parolees, and probationers, both during and after their sentences.

“Track Group’s experience, reputation for service, and commitment to public safety are the reasons we chose this partnership,” said James Levy, Socrates Software’s Managing Director.

“We have nearly 20,000 registered service users across five countries, and we look forward to empowering many more individuals to enhance their futures.”

“With Socrates 360, we are combining technology and skills training to help participants succeed after being released from custody,” said Derek Cassell, Track Group’s CEO.

“I believe by providing tailored education, employment, and life skills courses, we can better assist government agencies tasked with helping people get back on their feet.”
