TRTT Functional Statement
The Biometric Services Section (BSS) Training and Records Testimony Team (TRTT) is responsible for coordinating, developing and providing BSS employees with all training and materials needed to successfully perform their functions and further prepare them for the multimodal biometric capabilities of the future. Team members develop/implement initiatives to enhance the learning opportunities for all CJIS employees. The TRTT coordinates mandatory developmental training and plans policy and motivational conferences for the BSS employees.
Externally and internationally, the TRTT provides training and expert witness testimony in the science of fingerprints and the proper preparation/processing of friction ridge skin and criminal history record data to various law enforcement/criminal justice agencies. The TRTT proactively communicates training opportunities/topics with external agencies via telephone, email, web pages, video teleconferencing, various publications and participation in law enforcement/criminal justice educational conferences.
Training and Records Testimony Team’s Catalog of Classes, Workshops, Overviews and Presentations
The following is the most current catalog of classes, workshops and/or presentations being offered by the Biometric Services Section’s Training and Records Testimony Team (TRTT). If you would like to take a class from the TRTT menu and you do not see it on the schedule, please contact us with your request. In addition, if there is something you would like to see added to the menu, please feel free to make your suggestion(s) to any TRTT Instructor or staff member!
Please take advantage of our “Course Mapping.” This feature allows supervisors, managers, and our customers in the law enforcement community to “build your own” training event! Based on what you want to accomplish, one of our staff will work with you to identify a complete training event for your Team, Group, Unit or Agency. For example: you may want to organize a two/three day or even a week long “retreat” or functional training event for your staff. You would simply contact the TRTT; tell us your goals and the classes, workshops or overviews from our catalog you want us to teach. We will work with you on selecting a set of dates, securing a classroom, or location, and then tailor a training event to meet your needs. Please contact any Instructor for more information, or to set up your event!
“Excellence is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, skillful execution and the vision to see obstacles as opportunities.”
