This is not an open class with other people registered for the training. The training takes into account two probation mandates that are usually part of the training process. It should be assumed that this document may come under the scrutiny of other members of the court system. It is therefore incumbent upon the instructor to provide training that is relevant to the violation and provides future guidance to probationer. Therefore, the document is designed and formatted in a manner that allows people other than the original document user the ability to open, identify and understand the content. It should be noted that considerable attention has been giving to education and prevention in the training content. The offender is provided with a wide variety of resource s that help prevent future conflicts with the law. Written test are provided to help evaluate the users knowledge of the subject material. This is court ordered probation training and is considered a legal document that becomes part of the user’s court record.
