On Wednesday, September 6, 2017 from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. ET, the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), in collaboration with the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), will host the webinar, “Innovative Law Enforcement Resources for Investigating Child Sex Trafficking.”
Decisionmaking in law enforcement training is often a "do what I tell you to do" process. Little consideration goes into teaching someone how to think. Even less time is spent on deconstructing the decisionmaking process through a critical thinking evaluation.
Additionally, there are times when officers attempt to mitigate a problem and decide to act because they are there, but may lack the legal authority to act.
Attendees of this thoughtful webinar will be introduced to:
Since 1999, from across the country, approximately 3 million images of cartridge cases and bullets have been collected from crime scenes or test-fired guns have been uploaded into the National Integrated Ballistic Information Network (NIBIN), which allows for the capture and comparison of these ballistic images. When used to its fullest potential, NIBIN can generate timely investigative leads by linking crimes that may have otherwise gone unconnected.
Join the Office for Victims of Crime Training and Technical Assistance Center to take a look at the new Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) Guide, get an overview of the foundations used to create the guide, and find information on building a sustainable SANE program using a strong nursing foundation to support the SANE role.

This webinar is a Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) National Training and Technical Assistance Center (NTTAC) quarterly justice community webinar. During this webinar, Captain Cory Nelson of the Madison, Wisconsin Police Department will highlight focused deterrence programs that have successfully and drastically reduced violence associated with the targeted group of high-risk offenders. There will be an opportunity to ask questions at the end of the webinar.
Research suggests that as many as 60 percent of adolescents and adults with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Disorder (FASD) come into contact with the criminal justice system. FASD is a prenatal brain injury that can make understanding and complying with probation conditions difficult, putting this population at higher risk for recidivism. Learn effective supervision strategies to improve supervision outcomes, prevent crime, and reduce recidivism. During the webinar, participants will:
Despite the best efforts of the Joint Terrorism Task Forces and Fusion Centers, organized or lone wolf terrorist attacks can still occur in the United States. When that occurs, it is the local law enforcement that has to respond. As in all police operations, it is better to have a contingency plan before a terrorist event.
This webinar is designed to instruct law enforcement commanders, their police officers assigned to both patrol and investigative functions, and their analysts on how to aggressively collect and use actionable intelligence. The same intelligence techniques can also be used against both criminal and terrorist targets. The intelligence training taught in the webinar is designed to supplement the existing operational professionalism, skills, and experience within the audience.
The Police Foundation's National Resource and Technical Assistance Center for Improving Law Enforcement Investigations (NRTAC) will be hosting an upcoming webinar, “Overcoming Victim/Witness Intimidation & Gaining Cooperation in Investigations.”
