DOCUMENT FRAUD FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS

This course will assist law enforcement (Patrol Officers as well as Detectives)

with training that will enhance their ability to recognize and identify the universe

of identity-related documents issued by and relied upon by the MVC and the

factors that motivate fraudsters. With emerging technology it has become

increasingly difficult to identify fraudulent documents. Students will learn what

tools are available to assist them in identifying counterfeit documents by

providing “hands on” training and experience in the recognition of fraud as it

pertains to documents such as: driver licenses, green cards, passports, birth

certificates and social security cards. Participants will learn the newest trends in

counterfeiting of drivers licenses by “on-line” manufacturers, which has

becoming increasingly common due to the ease in obtaining access to

technologies. This course will also review counterfeit as well as genuine NJ

inspection stickers, temporary registrations and certificates of title.

In addition, this class will review facial recognition technology as it is used by the

Motor Vehicle Commission on all images captured as well as the process that is

used with the submission of a photo for a “manual upload”. This course will

inform students of a cutting edge investigative tool available at the New Jersey

Regional Operations Intelligence Center (ROIC). Known as the “Facial

Recognition Initiative”, this technology utilizes the Photo Imaging Mugshot

System maintained in the New York/New Jersey “HIDTA” program. The repository

consists of images from arrested individuals submitted by various law

enforcement agencies from New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. Currently,

MVC staff highly trained in the field of facial recognition has been assigned to

the ROIC to assist in this endeavor. Along with the instruction, the students will

receive reference material to assist in investigations.

expect in court, what your role is and how to make the most of testifying.

Having import information to give is not enough; you must also be able to

effectively communicate that evidence to the jury, lawyers and judge.

witness and a true contributor to the administration of justice.

SEMINAR ON ADVANCED CRIMINAL

INTERVIEW & INTERROGATION TECHNIQUES

The purpose of the WZ Seminar on Advanced Criminal Interview &

Interrogation Techniques is to offer participants, who have attended an

introductory interview and interrogation course, the opportunity to further

enhance their techniques.

Participants will obtain training in the latest and most powerful advanced

interview and interrogation techniques. This seminar utilizes practical

exercises, using underlying psychological principals to improve your ability

to obtain legally acceptable confessions.

This seminar allows participants to work through actual case studies

applying multiple interview and interrogation, including Positive

Confrontation, Behavior Analysis Interview, Cognitive Interviewing,

Enticement Questions, Factual Accusations and the WZ Non-

Confrontational Method. The non-confrontational approach to

interviewing and interrogation has been recognized for the way it

produces faster and more accurate results. In many cases, admissions are

achieved without the suspect ever making a denial or protesting his

innocence.

The seminar participant will review and practice reading of verbal and

Standardization Training

November 14-18, 2016

Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office Training Center

Background: Please allow this communiqué to refresh the training components

of this standardization undertaking. I have fielded several questions from agency

executives as well as their respective training coordinators. To adequately train

at the “train the trainer” level the student to instructor ratio must remain

manageable. This initial standardization is slotted for one (1) officer from each

member agency. This brings the class size to thirty (30), which is relatively large

for a Senior (Train the Trainer) level course that covers two separate and distinct

curriculums and an additional Oleoresin Capsicum (OC) Instructor Course.

I am aware of the need for many agencies to add more than the additional

one (1) Senior Instructor, this same of course of instruction will be offered multiple

times in 2017 to accommodate each agencies training needs. I ask for your

patience and understanding as this project takes foothold and we begin the

building blocks of training success. Rest assured that all member agencies will

have their training cadre’s filled with enough Senior Level Instructors. I have

planned to run this course as many times as necessary to fill each agency’s

needs.

Please select and schedule the best candidate for this extensive training week

as the final product will be the model for your officers/students.

Please remember that once your officer successfully completes this training

seminar; he/she will be able to certify as many instructors as your agency

requires in both the Monadnock Expandable Baton Course (MEB) and the

Monadnock Defensive Tactics Course (MDTS).

If there are any further questions please contact me direct at (732) 803-7923.

Thank you for support!

THROUGH NJ LEARN

BLOODBORNE PATHOGENS

The following Bloodborne Pathogens Training meets the Federal Occupational

Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, which was

adopted by the New Jersey State Public Employees Occupational Safety and

Health (PEOSH) Program. Training must be provided at the time of the

emergency responder’s initial employment and at least annually thereafter.

The standard requires that emergency responders have access to a qualified

trainer while taking on-line training to allow for interactive questions and

answers, if needed. This requirement can be met via telephone contact or

through email only if the trainer is available to answer emailed questions at the

time the questions arise (e.g., live chat). It is the responsibility of each

department’s/agency’s chief executive to provide their members with the

name, contact information and work hours of the qualified trainer designated to

assist with any questions.

The standard also requires that emergency responders are provided with an

explanation of the department’s/agency’s written exposure control plan, as well

as the means by which members can obtain a written copy. It is the

responsibility of each department’s/agency’s chief executive to provide this

information to its members. It is critical that each emergency responder knows

what to do in the event of an exposure and to be able to articulate their

department’s/agency’s exposure control plan.

If the emergency responder has questions relating to any training or

modifications made to existing procedures, they should consult with their

designated qualified trainer, supervisor, and/or appropriate legal advisor.
