On 7th October 2013 the CEP celebrated its 11th General Assembly (GA) in London. Following  the Confederation of European Probation (CEP) launched the First World Congress on Probation. This was organised to bring together practitioners and those with an interest in probation and community justice from across the globe to share their knowledge and experience. The Congress provided participants with the opportunity to examine and discuss new and changing probation practices which aim to support offenders in moving away from a life of crime.

On 6-7 October 2016, following the 12th CEP General Assembly on the 5th, CEP organised an international conference on one of its core business topics, namely “Alternatives to Detention”.
