Abstract
The article outlines a collaborative project between two South Australian organisations to develop a graduate certificate for correctional group workers. The project features the development of innovative training for facilitators of group programmes, which combines contemporary group work methods with criminogenic assessments. The genesis of the collaborative project and the philosophy and structure of the ensuing educational programme are discussed. We reflect on various forces, both inside the university and correction services, which have shaped the project, including obstacles and dilemmas encountered. The article affirms the value of the enterprise, whilst acknowledging the complexities inherent in challenging traditional academic and correctional practices.
