For years, I watched talented graduates struggle. They were smart, passionate, and ready to work. But when they applied for crime scene investigator positions, they kept hearing the same frustrating response:
"You don’t have enough field experience."
Traditional academic programs weren’t preparing students for the realities of the job — the technical demands, the emotional challenges, and the confidence to perform under pressure.
I wanted to change that.
So, I created a training program that goes beyond theory. I built a space where students learn what the job requires and practice those skills in hands-on, realistic settings.
Our Hands-On Training Modules provide students with practical, real-world experience in various areas such as death investigations, ballistics, and more, preparing them for a successful career in forensic science. Training at The Academy gives you the competitive edge employers are looking for when they hire. Our graduates have gone on to become crime scene investigators, private investigators, forensic pathologists, and death investigators.
Our instructors are recognized as experts in their respective fields with years of experience. Their passion is to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to prepare them for a fulfilling forensic science career. Our training programs have been recognized as a source of professional training in forensics. We welcome any students interested in starting a career as a forensic professional.
