Recovery of Human Remains
Join us for three days (24 hours) of hands-on training focused on the search, documentation, and recovery of buried and surface scattered human remains. This training will include the following topics:
Introduction to Forensic Anthropology
Human versus Non-Human Bone Identification
Human Osteology
Postmortem Modification to Human Remains
Recovery of Surface Scattered Skeletal Remains
Recovery of Buried Human Remains
Students will learn how to successfully and thoroughly recover human remains that are both buried and on the surface. This class would benefit crime scene/forensic personnel, medico-legal death investigators, and major crimes or homicide detectives, who would like to be more prepared when faced with these types of scenes.
This class is IAI Crime Scene Certification and ABMDI Continuing Education approved.
