This platform on the training of prison officers has been created and is being co-ordinated by members of the International Corrections and Prisons Association Staff Training and Development Group.

The staff training platform has the purpose to gather and structure information on training courses around the world in order to share good practices and experiences and to make sure that training centres are not reinventing the wheel when starting up a training course or enhancing their existing training course for prison officers.

On this platform you can also find reference material, including planning guides, pictures, international standards, publications, good practices and links to relevant organizations. In the International Criminal Justice Event Calendar are links to criminal justice agencies and facts from the nations of our world as well as treaties relevant to international criminal justice.

The International Corrections and Prisons Association is a membership organization for all those involved or interested in effective, humane, efficient and appropriate corrections - whether in institutions or the community. Any person can contribute to or comment on the material in this Website. If you have comments, questions or additions to suggest, please contact: Garyhill@cega.com.
