Abstract
The course identified problems that administrators in charge of correctional institutions should solve and explored methods for solving them. It also identified problems whose solutions require the understanding and cooperation of the police, prosecution, judiciary, and others, and suggested ways to resolve them. Further, the course identified problems in strengthening cooperation with agencies involved in the non-institutional treatment of offenders; ways were suggested for resolving them.
