SINT MAARTEN (POINT BLANCHE) - Honorable Minister of Justice, Anna E. Richardson is pleased to announce that the esteemed company, Creative Leadership and Innovation Management Bureau (CLIMB), has secured the bid to conduct General Educational Development (GED) courses for inmates at the Prison and House of Detention in Pointe Blanche, Sint Maarten.
The GED is a general equivalency diploma, which consists of standardized examinations, that entitles someone to receive credentials equivalent to a high school diploma.

This collaboration aims to empower incarcerated individuals with educational opportunities, fostering rehabilitation and personal growth.
