The paper aimed to assess the African experiences on correctional systems based on review of secondary sources. It was revealed that, one of the roles of prisons is to provide an effective environment that reduces the risk of reoffending. Many offenders have education and skill levels well below the average and are more likely to be unemployed, which has an impact on their health and ability to find housing. The introduction of vocational education and training (VET) programs as part of prisoner rehabilitation offers opportunities for offenders to reduce this disadvantage, thereby increasing the likelihood of successful re-integration into the community and reducing the risk of reoffending. Among others, this paper recommends for adequate financing and community involvement on correctional system program in order to have effective rehabilitation and reintegration.
