This three day course will benefit detectives, crime scene investigators and anyone involved with law enforcement that investigates shooting incidents. This course will help the criminal investigator in identifying, documenting and collecting all the evidence in a shooting scene to assist them in reconstructing the shooting incident. The students will learn how to use the tools necessary to determine the projectile’s trajectory and possible location of the shooter and/or victim at the time of the shooting. Students will also learn to examine the ballistic evidence to determine type of weapons used during the shooting incident. The students will incorporate the lessons learned during the classroom in hands-on scenarios that will enhance the learning process.

SOUTHEASTERN INVESTIGATIVE GROUP
Southeastern Investigative Group was started to provide hands-on homicide investigation training courses. Hands-on training is the effective method of teaching simple and complex investigative principles and putting them to use in a field environment. Our students will put their training to practical use in our scenario driven, hands-on training.
Our experienced Homicide Detectives and Crime Scene Investigators will take the students step by step through the investigative process and review their performance. Feedback will be provided to further develop the student's investigative skills. We strongly promote the team concept in homicide investigations and that is how our students will train.
