Course Topics

Logical latent analysis

When was the last time you attended a fingerprint class on analysis? Not a
theoretical discussion on how to implement ACE-V, or how to document your
analysis. Were talking about a practical fingerprint class on how to quickly
and accurately interpret the visual information found in latent prints. If youre
looking for a class to sharpen your skills, speed up your comparisons and
become more confident in your analysis this is the class for you.
For far too long latent print examiners have been trained how to examine
prints using the outdated definition-based system originally designed to teach
tenprint examiners how to classify fingerprints. Its time that latent print
examiners learn an intuitive approach to analysis based on how the human
mind naturally perceives information. Its the instructors goal to advance
the latent analysis process beyond the basic search smart tips and tricks by
outlining a systematic yet practical approach to latent print analysis. This
approach known as Logical Latent Analysis can benefit new examiners as well
as experienced examiners.
This two-day course will cover innovative techniques designed to make
examiners more efficient and confident at their jobs. You will learn new
techniques like: how to determine directional flow, how to recognize the
axis of a print, the importance of the funnel effect, how magnetic north
indicates delta location, where the baseline is located and much more.
The instructor will use lecture, class discussion, and comparison exercises to
reinforce the techniques discussed.
