“Having the opportunity to listen and learn from Detectives/Investigators whether they are seasoned or newer, was amazing. Aside from making new friends and connections, learning new approaches, new science, and technology that I wasn’t even that aware of, what really impressed me were the interactions and participation from the experts/moderators that were facilitating the class from IHIA. They truly cared about us and the cases we were presenting. I hope to attend other classes and events in the future.”

"Having gone to trainings put on by IHIA previously, I fully expected to learn a wealth of information from the best experts in the field. What I didn't expect was to break my cold case investigation wide open in real time with the help of dozens of other highly invested and passionate cold case detectives, but that is exactly what happened. I cannot recommend this training enough, and I will absolutely be attending again!"
