	About National Crime Investigation & Training


	TRAINING


		In 1976, National Crime Investigation and Training (NCIT) was established to meet an expressed need for crime scene investigation training. The NCIT instructors, having many years experience in the field, designed courses to fulfill this need. NCIT felt that the course should be designed to not only train the new inexperienced crime scene technician, but to also improve the experienced investigator’s skills. NCIT continues to follow this philosophy by providing the most up-to-date and comprehensive material available. Over the years, NCIT has expanded the range of courses to address three core subject areas. The courses NCIT offers are Crime Scene Investigation and Reconstruction, Advanced Crime Scene Reconstruction and Logistics, and Bloodshed Interpretation. Courses are scheduled throughout the year, however, if our schedule does not meet your needs NCIT will come to you. SINCE 2005 WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO PROVIDE CALIFORNIA AGENCIES TWO CHOICES TO ATTEND OUR PROGRAMS! If your CALIFORNIA agency can provide the training environment, then NCIT will come to your agency and there will be NO REGISTRATION FEES! The NCIT courses are now contracted and paid for directly by California POST. These “onsite” classes are also CALIFORNIA POST Plan IV reimbursable. HOWEVER; if you cannot support the training requirements, then come to Sacramento Sheriff’s Department where they provide outstanding support to all law enforcement training needs! NCIT courses offered through Sacramento SO are CALIFORNIA POST plan III reimbursable. FOR OTHER STATES OR NATIONS- NCIT will bring our courses to your agency provided training environment for a nominal fee that will include travel and per diem costs for two instructors. The base price for our courses (outside of California is $550 (US) per student. Add all travel costs to this amount and you can estimate the costs to your area. Fees include one copy of the text for each attendee. Check out how you can sponsor a NCIT course for your training requirements. All NCIT courses meet many state’s P.O.S.T. requirements, however, if requirements are different in your area, NCIT will modify the courses to meet your specific local requirements.

								THE BOOK



								"Evidence and Crime Scene Reconstruction", was designed to be used with the NCIT courses. However, it has proven useful for investigators, crime scene technicians, attorneys and other instructors in their courses. The book contains common sense and to-the-point instructions, which are useful and applicable for any investigation. Now in the 6th edition, revisions are made every two to three years to provide the most contemporary techniques and knowledge. You will find this book to be a most valuable asset to your library, to order one today see the order form. The sixth edition includes a major section dealing with the logistics and management of the major crime scene as well as updates to include digital images, DNA, reconstruction and additional “tricks of the trade”!
