These workshops are being offered by the Cedar Crest College Forensic Science Training Institute in conjunction with the Northeastern Association of Forensic Scientists (NEAFS) and is being supported by a grant from the National Institute of Justice (Award # 2007-DN-BX-K212). NEAFS members who work in local and state public forensic science laboratories will be given priority in registration by being allowed to register early for this workshop (see table for dates). After the NEAFS only registration period, registration will be made available to all others pending space availability.
All registrants who either register early as NEAFS members or are working forensic science practitioners in local and state public forensic science laboratories will have their registration and travel expenses reimbursed or compensated. Those registrants who fall into this category should not send in a registration fee upon registering for a workshop but must contact Janine Kishbaugh (610-606-4666, ext. 3643) for travel arrangements and information. Registrants who do not fall into this category will be responsible for their own travel and are responsible for all expenses including the registration fee.
