Introducing the Practice Recommendations regarding Technologies in Probation

We are delighted to present the Practice recommendations regarding technologies in probation developed by the CEP Expert Group on Technology.

This comprehensive document aims to support jurisdictions to consider identified issues before developing and using technology, undergoing digitalisation or considering hybrid working models. It includes a compilation of best practices and a practical checklist to guide organizations in effectively navigating introduction of new technologies.

Our heartfelt thanks go to the Expert Group on Technology for their dedication and hard work in bringing these recommendations to fruition.
