Training forensic
The ASCLD Leadership Academy is a training program offered by the American Society of Crime Laboratory Directors for managerial personnel in forensic science laboratories. It is designed to deliver training of the highest quality at a cost that recognizes the current strained budgets of labs across the US. The Academy is open to ASCLD members and non-members, alike. The mission of the ASCLD Leadership Academy is to train managers to become LEADERS.
In operation for more than a decade, the ASCLD Leadership Academy will again offer a Level 1 and Level 2 courses in Spring 2024. Level 1 is designed specifically for newly appointed supervisors and supervisors who have had little opportunity for previous formal management training and education. The Level 2 Academy focuses on providing quality instruction to forensic science leaders who are responsible for entire forensic programs, multiple sections and teams, or an entire forensic laboratory.
The Academy is a blended training model, combining weekly lecture-style webinars with a “Management Lab” at the annual ASCLD symposium where students will participate in hands-on, practical exercises to develop their skills.
Additionally, ASCLD is excited to announce that starting in 2024, we will be offering a Level 3 Academy! The Level 3 Academy will focus on providing executive-level training to forensic science leaders who are responsible for entire forensic programs, large laboratories, or entire forensic laboratory systems. The ASCLD Leadership Academy Level 3 builds upon the instruction of Level 1 and 2, and qualifies participants to test for the Certified Forensic Manager Level 3 exam (CFM-III).
