''The most common correctional treatment, which allows the offender to return to the community and remain under the supervision of the agent of the court, is PROBATION''.

When someone commits an offence, in criminal law, the person that committed the crime, that is, the criminal or offender after been found guilty, can be asked by court to remain in the community under supervision. Also, an offender can be on probation if he or she was released from prison under this condition.

The offenders, during their probation period are meant to abide with the governing laws and conditions strictly. Offenders on probation may be supervised under the following types of supervision;

(1). Informal supervision, (2). Shock probation, and (3). Standard supervision.

Offenders may also be monitored through GPS.
