forensics unfiltered with gap science

Forensics is fascinating – we wouldn’t have gotten into this career if we didn’t have a love for the science. But there’s A LOT behind the scenes no one tells you about before you get into the forensic field.

They loved it!

"So much personal reflection - you're offering some great tips. I'm listening to the salary episode and I agree. Particularly when you both mentioned which degree program to follow. Go broad - Biology, Chemistry, Criminal Justice, and more. The pay here in Florida is depressing. You have to really want to be here. It's past time to move us up on the salary scale. I'm enjoying the information!"

"I absolutely loved the pregnancy as a CSI episode! For so many this is not a topic that we talk about! Sometimes it’s hard to rely on your coworkers for help and not wanting to be a “bother” to them. You will not be disappointed by their insightful, educational and personal input into this! Love the taboo topics! Keep it up!"

WHAT ARE STUDENTS SAYING?

I felt overall, this is probably one of the best classes I have attended. I felt the instructors were entertaining and taught us information that I could actually apply in my unit. I would definitely take any class that these instructors offered.
TAMMY L.
CRIME SCENE SPECIALIST
Was completly satisfied with this course. The material that was covered will all be brought back to my department and be a huge benefit! Ashley was well prepared and did a tremendous job presenting the information as well as answering questions that were brought up with enthusiasm and great insight.
MATT D.
CRIME SCENE SUPERVISOR & LATENT PRINT EXAMINER
Truly appreciate that this class even exists. My agency has been on top of me about taking FTO and supervisor related classes but it’s hard to find classes that are relevant for CSI work
RACHEL M.CSI & EVIDENCE SUPERVISOR
This course was everything I hoped it would be. Teaching people how to train is something very few employers do and it’s such a critical skill.
ALISON H.IDENTIFICATION SUPERINTENDENT
I am very satisfied with this training because it has provided ideas that I can implement at my agency
ADAM S.FINGERPRINT TECHNICIAN II
Very satisfied. Came into class with no FTO experience and left with a solid grasp and respect for what goes into the training program.
