FactualDiagrams.com Crash Data Retrieval Technician Course, Level I & II February 16-17, 2012 Instructor: Kent E. Boots, ACTAR Cost of Event: $125 for Level I, $225 for both Level I & II Baldwin Park, California, USA Description: These courses are best suited for field investigators, insurance investigators & adjusters, or those involved in vehicle documentation and examinations. They offer the attendee insight into the basic operation and use of the Bosch Crash Data Retrieval (CDR) System. The Level I course is introductory level training which exposes the Crash Data Retrieval System user to the basic functions of the Bosch CDR system so that, at a minimum, the user can confidently image and preserve data from supported vehicles using the standard OBD II (DLC) port, or in some cases directly from the airbag control module (ACM).  Upon successful completion of the Level I course the attendee will be recognized as a Basic CDR Technician. The Level II course is the hands-on extension follow up to the Basic CDR Technician (Level I) course.  It offers individual or small group guided instruction in the following: -In vehicle DLC data imaging -Module location and identification -Direct-to-module data imaging -Practical booster and adaptor applications (ACM, PCM) -“Back powering” airbag control modules to allow in vehicle DLC data imaging This hands on instruction and subsequent evaluation by a Trainer/Mentor completes the CDR Technician Level certification. The Level I & II Technician courses do not go into any analysis of the imaged data.  Both courses are the basis for, and are a required prerequisite for, the CDR Data Analyst's course. Note: Each student in the Level II course receives a “re-powering rig”, a $35 value. Email This Event Download PDF Flyer Phone: 916-770-9475 Fax: 916-290-0418 Email CEU's: Yes, ACTAR

FactualDiagrams.com Basic/Intermediate Diagramming with CrashZone-CrimeZone February 20-24, 2012 Instructor: Kent E. Boots, ACTAR - CAD Zone Master Trainer Cost of Event: $450 Fontana, California, USA Description: The five-day, 40-hour, course discusses the principles and operation of CrashZone/Crime Zone™ software used for illustrating crash and crime scenes.  The class is designed with both crash investigators and crime scene investigators in mind.  This in-depth, hands-on course will take you through the process of creating from simple to complex scale diagrams of various crash and crime scene scenarios both indoors (crime) and outdoors.  This course will provide the attendees with effective ways of maximizing the capabilities of the software program.  Attendees will learn from learn from lecture, actual case examples, videos, and hands-on experience allowing them to generate immediate results.  There will also be an introduction on the various methods of both importing and converting total station files.  Attendees will also discuss accuracy, chain of custody, and other admissibility issues in laying the foundation for diagrams to be admitted as evidence. Note: There will be a “field” exercise where attendees will sketch and hand measure a crash or crime “scene” and then complete a scale diagram of the scene using the software.  Attendees should bring appropriate items for hand measuring a scene; tape measures, rolatapes, etc. Topics include: -Measuring conventions: coordinate system, baseline offset (station line), and triangulation -Basics of using the drawing tools and functions -Adding text & dimensions -Measuring distances and angles from a CAD diagram -Placing and modifying symbols, creating custom symbols -Creating custom legends, scales bars, and title boxes -Creating separate layers for illustrating multiple “views” of the same scene -Importing and exporting images, scaling and tracing images -Extracting information for use outside of the software -Preservation of electronic data -An introduction to three-dimensional diagramming of crash and crime scenes Email This Event Download PDF Flyer Phone: 916-770-9475 Fax: 916-290-0418 Email CEU's: Yes, ACTAR, 40

Northwestern University Center for Public Safety Traffic Crash Reconstruction 3 February 27, 2012 - March 2, 2012 Evanston, Illinois, USA Description: This one-week program was developed by our lead instructors and offers a curriculum that provides the reconstruction professional with advanced analytical and methodological concepts to better understand and explain real word crash reconstructions. In-depth instruction is focused on three key areas: Monte Carlo analysis Advanced concepts in energy Advanced concepts in momentum Email This Event Phone: 800-323-4011 Fax: 847-491-5270 Email CEU's: Yes

Northwestern University Center for Public Safety Advanced Crash Reconstruction - Utilizing Human Factors Research March 5-9, 2012 Cost of Event: 850 Evanston, Illinois, USA Description: In many crash reconstruction cases, the key questions to be answered involve some aspect of human behavior: reaction times (and delays), perception, visibility, impairment (alcohol, drugs and/or fatigue) and so on. This course builds upon what is taught in our Traffic Crash Reconstruction 1 and 2 courses and focuses on obtaining a better understanding of what needs to be done to assess the human role in the crash sequence.
