Probation refers to a trial period.
In legal terms it means a period of time where the individual is closely monitored and must not do certain things. They must report in to a probation officer on a regular basis, cannot hang around other criminals, bars, or firearms. If they leave the city/area, they must have permission.
Academic probation is a period where you have to get your grades to a certain level or you get expelled.
Probation period on a job means they are trying you out and if you don't do it well, they can let you go.

Probation is usually the period after you are hired that the company can decide if they want to keep you or not. It usually last 3-6 months. Also probation can be a disciplinary act used against an employee if they are not preforming the way the company wants and they say you have such amount of time to get yourself together or your fired. That usually is 3-6 months as well.
