Definition
- Adult basic education (ABE) is an umbrella term that includes a number of prison courses. Most programs are designed to help inmates obtain literacy skills and/or a high school or general equivalency diploma (GED), though some institutions also offer classes in life skills, anger management, interpersonal relationship, and financial budgeting along with vocational and occupational skills programs.
