8/17/06 Know Anyone in Law Enforcement?

Update, 8/26/06: Fox Valley Technical College has now officially booked the facility for the training seminar. While we have not met our official attendence goal, we are close. Please keep sending out this information so that we can reach more LE about this valuable training.


If you do, please email the letter that follows to them.

The more LE we can get into more training, the better for our cause. As LE budgets across the county continue to be cut to the bone, missing persons' investigative training is left behind.

This training is excellent. I attended an abbreviated version of it myself. It's also a bargain at $275 for 2.5 days. In the corporate world, training of this level would most likely cost up to 5 times more. The instructors are top notch, and as you can see by the training roster, the line up of subjects taught is comprehensive. Even though it is missing adults investigation, much of what is taught can apply in all case types and age ranges.

There are not many opportunities for this caliber of training available. We invite LE from all over the country. No matter where you live, we ask you to forward this in case your LE might be able to attend. It will help all of us who deal with this situation now, and the missing persons cases which will, unfortunately happen in the future. Thank you.

The Letter:
