Description

The Virginia Department of Criminal Justice Services, in partnership with the Washington/Baltimore High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) and the Northeast Counterdrug Training Center (NCTC), is pleased to announce Video Surveillance Techniques for Narcotics Investigations training October 15 – 17, 2019 at J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College, Downtown Campus, in Richmond, Virginia.  This three (3) day course is designed on the premise that participants have little or no experience with video. Students will be exposed to state-of-the-art video surveillance systems and will be offered the opportunity to use them in realistic “hands-on” scenarios.

Participants will learn how to use video camcorders and the associated technology to supplement their work to record narcotic crime scenes, narcotics trafficking, drug smuggling, transportation and distribution, auto theft operations, murder-for-hire investigations, monitoring registered sex offenders, and other forms of criminal activity.

Participants are encouraged to bring some or all of the following equipment:

• Video camcorders/surveillance systems used by their department (any format-tapes or digital media)
• Accessories (media cards, tapes, batteries, charger, night scopes, tripods)
• Covert audio and video systems, including cameras and recorders
• Unmarked vehicle
