Rehabilitation is a good term. "Court-ordered education" might be another -- it's something that happens in the U.S. already (get a DUI and part of your punishment is likely to take a class on why that's bad and why you shouldn't do it), and it stresses that this is a legitimate criminal penalty, not just a euphemism.

Xi Jinping: "Listen, Jack. You need to go back to school. Learn some real skills. Get a practical job. Work your way to success. We can't keep taking care of you like this. You're 56 years old. It's time for some touch love. Time to pull yourself up by your own bootstraps."
