Join us in sunny San Diego for Geographic Profiling training this spring. Geographic Profiling is an analytical technique that uses crime locations to locate an offender’s home. Geographic profiling fits nicely at agencies looking to advance into predictive policing. This course gives analysts, detectives, and other information about how to use geographic factors to find serial offenders. Attendees who successfully complete this course are eligible to attend the Geographic Profiling Analysis II course and become certified in geographic profiling.
Students learn through the study of real cases, group dialogue, and hands-on exercises. This course is based on the work of noted expert in the field, Dr. Kim Rossmo. Dr. Rossmo and geographic profiling have been featured in Dateline NBC, Reader's Digest, the London Sunday Times, the Il Tempo (Italy), Popular Science, TV Guide, De Limburger (The Netherlands), and hit drama NUMB3RS on CBS. This course is timed with the release of the second edition of Dr. Rossmo’s ground-breaking book “Geographic Profiling”. This methodology was a contributor to the criminal investigation that received an International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP)/ChoicePoint Award for Excellence in Criminal Investigation and was an IACP Webber Seavey Finalist.
