    Great course! This course has taught me more in depth on trajectory, range of fire, and entrance and exit wounds. I will apply this to my shootings.

    Small images

    Just a suggestion,... there was a lot of unused space. Maybe make the images bigger and stand to the side. It's good to see you talking but the images were small.

    Accurate representation and description of the course

    This was an excellent representative course of the topic with informative pragmatic presentation. I found that I made a mistake by using my IPad for this course, since with it’s smaller screen I felt that I limited my experience in trying to view the wounds presented accurately.

    Very Useful

    I found this course very useful! I learned about what autopsies can figure out in regard to finer details of gunshot injuries and wounds. I, as a CSI, document them fully but don't always see the autopsy results.

    This is an excellent introductory to intermediate class for the death investigator. Especially for investigators not fully versed in firearm nomenclature. Highly recommended for all investigators. I like the resource documents as well.

    Very Informative and Detailed

    I am a habitual note taker when I am learning new things and the way this course is broken down and explained, I am able to remember the information a lot easier than in other courses training that I have taken. The photos, while graphic, were so helpful in showing what the actual injuries show. A drawing, description and diagram can only show so much. The actual investigative photos were what made it real and what made it easier to understand.

  • Lindsey

  • John

    My opinion

    Excellent presentation, and well presented. I especially appreciate the diagram sheets provided with the course. The only negative when downloading the diagrams, the system did not record me as having completed these so it delayed me a bit. No big deal just a glitch in the system...

    Not sure what you are looking for exactly in these forms, so I will put it all in the window below.

    I enjoy this format. Easy to break into segments in case you need a break or get pulled away for something at work. It offers a lot of flexibility to take in the information at your own pace. As far as the class itself, I think it is a great tool, especially for newer investigators, to show them what to look for, familiarity with weapons, and learning what he/she should be paying attention to. I look forward to trying other courses in the future.
