Special Events

From time to time, the Training Center will offer special event training.  These events are typically skills assessment tests.  They are meant to test the Crime Scene Investigator’s knowledge in various areas.   Traditional classroom training is not provided for these events.  Participants will be given a brief and set out to process their given scenario.  At the end of the event, an instructor will debrief the participants.  This includes critiquing their actions and give guidance on how to improve on deficient areas.   A report can also be generated for the  participant’s agency.  If you have any questions, please contact the Training Center.
