COURSE DETAILS
One of the recommendatons of the
NAS report, Strengthening Forensic
Science in the United States: A Path
Forward, was that forensic science
practtoners atain certfcaton in their
respectve felds. Recent developments
in the legislatve branch of the federal
government indicate movement toward adoptng these recommendatons.
There are many people qualifed to take the IAI Latent Print Examiner
certfcaton exam who have not done so. Recent improvements to the
certfcaton test have made certfcaton more atainable than ever before.
The goal of this three-day workshop is to give examiners the motvaton and
confdence to take the frst step. This class will guide examiners through the
certfcaton requirements, applicaton process and preparing for each of the
four parts of the examinaton (patern interpretaton, writen exam, latent
comparisons and case for review).
Through lecture and group exercises examiners will learn how to increase their
speed in order to successfully complete the exam. The instructors will equip
the students with knowledge, strategies, and helpful tps that will enable the
students to approach the exam with confdence and an enhanced chance for
success. See the course topics to the right.
