Due to the Untimely passing of Jamie Novak, our Fall Seminar lineup has changed. The new agenda is available for download below. In addition to the list of exceptional speakers, we will once again be hosting a bean bag tournament at the tailgate party with the winners receiving a Gift Card. We will also be giving away a fire investigation tool kit by luck of the draw during the seminar.

Barry Grimm will present all day on Tuesday. Topics will include evidence collection, scene documentation, and interviewing.

Paul Makuc from the Connecticut State Police Fire and Explosion Unit is presenting all day on Wednesday. He will be presenting a program called “When Arson Becomes a Murder Weapon.”

Michael Vergon (Retired ATF) and Kenneth Allen will finish things off on Thursday with a program called “Insurance Fraud: An Offender’s Prospective” “Arson for Profit: From the Mouth of an Arsonist”

We will also be hosting our basic class that is taught by the State Fire Marshals. This course will run concurrent with our General session. 

These topics and instructors are subject to change without notice. While we strive to provide accurate topic and instructor information, some things are beyond our control.
