ocument Evidence is involved in many aspects of training. These include:

• The training of investigators
  
  Public authorities, for example the Police and Trading Standards investigators, frequently need to use the forensic document examiner's expertise in their enquiries. The investigators will be able to make best use of this expertise if they are fully aware of the range of examinations that are possible and how they can achieve the best evidence by obtaining optimal material for examination.
  
  
• Awareness courses for staff who need some basic working knowledge - for example counter fraud staff
  
  Many aspects of modern life require people to provide proof of identity before they are allowed access to goods and services, particularly financial services. Rapid, large-scale screening of documentary material frequently forms a significant part of such processes. Document Evidence can help those assessing such material by giving a general awareness of document authentication.
  
  
• The instruction of trainee document examiners
  
  The staff at Document Evidence have an international reputation. They have been involved in the training of document examiners from around the world. We are able to offer the full range of assistance from short, specialised courses on specific topics to fully-rounded training packages.
  
  
• Academic training
  
  Many new forensic science courses are now available at academic institutions. Document Evidence staff can assist those teaching document examination techniques and also can contribute directly to the teaching of the more specialised aspects of the disciplines.
