Basic Death Investigations
Manchester, NH Police Department
April 04-06, 2022
***Important Registration Information***
You are able to register multiple attendees on one registration. However, only the first person registered for a specific course will receive a confirmation message. This is due to Constant Contacts' registration software, not ours. Please be sure the first person registered forwards the confirmation message to other attendees that have also been registered, as well as supervisors and/or billing personnel.
If you wish to register additional attendees later, please use a different email address (such as one of the new attendees) and create a new, separate registration as the system does not allow multiple registrations under the same email address.
The investigation of the death of another person is the greatest responsibility that can be bestowed upon any law enforcement officer. In order to be a successful death investigator, an officer must have a working knowledge of several different disciplines.
