Program referrals are found under which OIMS section?

• A. Programs
• B. Directory Of Reports
• C. Location Tracking
• D. Release

Answer: (A)

Program referrals are managed where program activity lives: the Programs section. This area is designed to handle offender involvement in rehabilitative or educational efforts, including referrals, enrollment, progress, and completion. Referrals are part of coordinating and tracking what programs an offender is being directed to, so placing them in the Programs section keeps all program-related information in one place. Other sections serve different purposes: the Directory of Reports is for generating and viewing reports about offenders, Location Tracking shows where someone is or has been, and Release covers release dates and conditions. So the Programs area is the natural home for program referrals.
