Most digital evidence is won or lost before a detective ever sees the device. This two-day course shows patrol officers how to handle phones, citizen cameras, and smart-home devices on the first call, reducing the risk of loss of evidence.
Who it's for: Built for patrol officers and first responders. Investigators and supervisors are welcome.
Covers proper identification, collection, and chain-of-custody practices for digital evidence and IoT devices encountered in the field — built to hold up from the initial call through the case file.
A hands-on course focused on properly isolating, documenting, and packaging digital devices at the scene, reducing the risk of data loss or contamination before evidence ever reaches the lab.

Looking ahead: we're developing a Day 3 on-site extraction course that may grow into a full certification track.
With more than two decades in law enforcement and eleven years in information technology, Matt built this training around a simple principle: officers need practical, hands-on skills they can apply on their very next call. As a Missouri POST-approved instructor, he brings a rare combination of field experience and technical depth to every course.
Both digital evidence courses are approved — dates just haven't been scheduled yet. Tell us about your agency and we'll follow up directly as soon as registration opens.
