Being in Texas prisons, our chances of getting rehabilitated are slim to none when it comes to prison officials. So we have to be self-willing on rehabilitating ourselves. I would like to tell you all how highly appreciative that I am for you all blessing me and others with these learning guides.

Testimonials for this guide:
- Jermain, in prison in Texas
This guide gave me great ideas when it comes to technology jobs. I'm passionate when it comes to computer technology. One of the first things I'm going to do when I get out of prison is use the internet, and with this knowledge and information from this guide, I'll be able to use the web without a problem.
- Miguel, in prison in California
I use this guide often to be a step ahead of the game. The internet is an important tool and skill that will be needed once released. This guide wasn't confusing like the other courses. I have been incarcerated for 16 years. Now, everything is done on computers. Level has always been there for me, and I'm grateful.
