Unlock the Power of Forensic Genetic Genealogy—Solve Cases Faster, Save Thousands, and Secure Your Investigations
Outsourcing forensic genealogy can be expensive, slow, and risky.
Many vendors lack law enforcement experience, which leads to costly
mistakes. With the Law Enforcement Forensic Genetic Genealogy Certificate Program,
taught by a seasoned police detective and a forensic expert, you’ll
gain the skills to handle investigations in-house—saving at least $3,000
per case, while maintaining control over security, accuracy, and case
presentation.
This
comprehensive, hands-on program guides you through the entire forensic
genetic genealogy process—from case initiation to solving real
cases—using actual DNA data. Plus, you’ll be fully prepared to present
your findings in court, including expert report writing, backed by
strategies to address challenges raised by defense experts.
Why In-House is the Smarter—and Safer—Choice
Outsourcing
your forensic genealogy cases to third-party vendors with no law
enforcement experience isn’t just a budget drain—it opens your cases to
unnecessary risk. With this program, you’ll bring the entire forensic
genetic genealogy process in-house, saving time, money, and ensuring
your case is rock-solid from investigation to courtroom presentation.
Save Over $3,000 Per Investigation
Avoid expensive vendor fees by handling investigations internally—saving thousands on each case.
Maximize Case Security
Keep
sensitive DNA data within your department and eliminate security risks
associated with third-party vendors who often lack experience with law
enforcement’s specific needs.

Key Dates
Hi, I’m Christine, and I’m excited to introduce you to the Law Enforcement Forensic Genetic Genealogy Certificate Program.
Before you sign up, I want to let you know about a key part of the
program that could make your learning experience even more impactful.
One of the unique opportunities in this course is that you can work on your own case
during our practical exercises. This hands-on approach means you’ll be
applying what you learn directly to your own investigations—but it does
require some prep work before class starts.
If you’re planning to work on a cold case
or any active investigation, I’ll need to hear from you in advance to
ensure we have everything ready before the course begins.
Specifically, we need to start the genome sourcing process no later than November 15, 2024.
Getting your genome sourced and prepared takes time, and we want to make sure everything is in place for the January 15, 2025 start date.
To help you stay on track, here are the key deadlines you’ll need to meet if you plan to work on a case during the course:
By November 1, 2024,
we need to have a conversation about your case. This is to ensure the
case is a good fit for forensic genetic genealogy, and to include it in
the next sourcing run.
November 15, 2024 is the deadline to begin genome sourcing—this will give us time to have your data ready for class."
You’ll also need mid-level access to Ancestry.com
for our family tree-building exercises. We’ll be using this tool to
work with genetic data and trace relationships, which is crucial for
solving cases."
So,
if you’re interested in applying what you learn to your own case,
please reach out to me as soon as possible. This will ensure we have
everything in place before the class starts. Remember, we’re here to
help you through the entire process, from lab sourcing to getting your
genome ready to go.
I
look forward to working with you in this hands-on, practical course. If
you have any questions or want to discuss a case for the program, don’t
hesitate to reach out. Let’s make sure we’re ready to hit the ground
running!
