Additional Event Information

This program is designed for two-person law enforcement-prosecutor teams experienced in and regularly engaged in collecting and presenting digital evidence. Building on their pre-existing basic knowledge, students will study the legal and Constitutional framework for collecting digital evidence, both from the internet and communication providers as well as from digital devices. Experienced law enforcement instructors will also teach the most advanced technologies available and how to navigate the ever-changing world of digital communications to solve and prosecute criminal cases. Topics will include Wifi technology, Wifi Calling, Social Media Investigations, Writing Effective Digital Search Warrants, and others.

The program is being offered in cooperation with the National Domestic Communications Assistance Center (NDCAC). The National Domestic Communications Assistance Center (NDCAC) is a National center, organized under the Department of Justice (DOJ), that provides technical knowledge management to facilitate the sharing of solutions and know-how among law enforcement agencies and strengthens law enforcement’s relationships with the communications industry. The NDCAC leverages / shares the collective technical knowledge and resources of the law enforcement community to address challenges posed by advanced communications services and technologies.

All accepted students will be required to pass a security check and obtain a secure online account with the NDCAC.

The program is free.  Lodging and parking will be provided and meals will be reimbursed at state per diem rates. Mileage is NOT covered and will be the attendee's responsibility.

Space is limited to 22 teams. Teams are to be comprised of one prosecutor and one investigator from the same jurisdiction.

ACCEPTANCE IS BY APPLICATION ONLY. Upon completion of the online registration an application will be emailed to both team members to be completed and returned to CASC. For more information, contact Elliott Casey at ecasey@wm.edu.
