WARNING: This course contains images of actual death scenes and nudity.
This comprehensive investigative training course for law enforcement, police, coroners, medical examiners, crime scene and forensic technicians, is the only online course of its kind that the instructor is aware of. A word of warning; this course shows graphic depiction of deceased persons, images associated with an autoerotic activity, and a video of actual death by asphyxial means.
This course is comprised of real information investigators can use to interpret a scene of a suspected autoerotic death. Full of information needed, yet purposefully lacking long explanations of research and controlled studies. You will find careful descriptions to help determine what these deaths are — and what they are not. The investigator will be equipped with the necessary skills to properly investigate this type of death.
Many of these deaths are misinterpreted every year because scene investigators are untrained and look only for signs of homicide or suicide. This combined with the untrue belief that this death is only a "male masturbation" issue, they never take into consideration the ruling of an autoerotic accident.
This is an online video training and is designed to be interactive with students by random quizzes and a final exam. Student login and time are tracked per student to verify time spent in the course if needed. Testing cannot be done until the videos are watched. Many videos have a unique symbol or picture that will appear prominently in the video and is part of the test questions, this will ensure the video has been watched.
Certificates will only be available for print after the successful completion of the course.
Each certificate will indicate that it was computer-based training and will note the post control number and the CLEE hours given.
