The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, FL, is hosting an intensive 5-day Advanced Criminal Investigative Analysis (Psychological Profiling) course for rape and homicide investigators September 22 - September 26, 2008.
The course will be taught by Phoebe L.Kelsoe, Ph.D., of the Alpha Group Center for Crime and Intelligence Analysis Training. A professional profiler and the former Manager of the Crime Analysis Unit, Special Investigations Bureau for the Riverside County, California Sheriff's Department, Dr. Kelsoe currently consults and instructs on practical applications of Criminal investigative analysis techniques for law enforcement organizations throughout theUnited States and Canada.
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 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.
The course takes a very practical "learn-by-doing" approach to training, which, through lectures and class exercises, provides students with numerous opportunities to actually profile serial rape and homicide suspects. 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. Students will also be provided with 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 Study Guide, the booklet, and related course materials. The course also may fulfill your state's peace officer commission (POST, TCLOSE, etc.) requirements for continuing education or training hours.
