Analysis Training, and may also fulfill your state's peace officer commission (POST, TCLOSE, etc.)
requirements for continuing education or training hours.

Designed primarily for investigators and crime analysts who are
responsible for investigating or assisting in the investigation of homicide, in-class projects also
deal with the crime of rape. Other relevant issues are examined as well. For example, you will
learn how to identify the personality and behavioral characteristics of the victim and the
offender in child abductions, how to identify the physical, behavioral, and personality
characteristics of offenders who attack and kill elderly women, and how to analyze
information contained in police reports to actually develop a profile that describes the type of
offender who most likely committed the crime.

Each participant will receive a copy of the "Advanced Criminal
Investigative Analysis Study Guide and Workbook." This manual provides numerous pages of class notes
and supplemental reading material that will be used extensively throughout the course,
and a copy of "Case Management for Missing Children Homicide Investigation." This booklet
provides a wealth of information about offenders who commit child homicides, their victims,
crime scene patterns, violent acts, and their motivations for committing such violent crimes.
Tuition for the course is $525 and includes the week of instruction, the text, and all related
course materials.
