If you want to work in the private sector, you might consider our 2-year mentoring program so and be earning money and open up your own expert witness consulting firm upon graduation.

This includes students in Africa, Hong Kong, and Turkey.
Courts are filled with forged wills, fake checks, and mocked up contracts cluttering the legal system. Until recently, it was "free reign" for criminals to forge documents to support their dubious claims in the thousands of uncontested trials statewide because of a serious shortage of court qualified document examiners.
In many states, the attorney general just dismisses in mass forged check charges and other document related crimes because the workload and the price is simply too high to prove forgery without a witness or a highly trained handwriting expert.
Bob Baier, one of the nation's top handwriting expert (alumni and past faculty member), explains,"Many clients are not attorneys. They are regular people honestly trying to figure out if a suicide note is authentic, a last will of a parent is real, or the identity of the writing on a card. Handwriting is the key to solving a lot of problems."
Handwriting Experts are needed daily in both civil and criminal proceedings. According to Bart Baggett, Founder of the School of Forensic Document Examination, "Over 90% of the handwriting cases we get never get to court. So, a powerful "letter of opinion" is in many cases, enough motivation to settle without the risky and costly trial."
This school of mentors, professionals and educators, has changed the way documents are analyzed and forgery cases are solved. If have ever considered working in law enforcement, the legal field, or criminal forensics, handwriting document examination might be for you.
As an accepted student and apprentice inside our School of Forensics, you can earn money while you learn the business. If you qualify, you will be invited to work side-by-side with Bart Baggett aor one of our Faculty members to get real on-the-job training before you launch your own business. (Our marketing team will get you listed on over 100 different directory pages worldwide even run paid advertising to support you the first 2 years of your new business.) What's more, the support doesn't end after graduation. Many past students are still part of our adveritising co-op and their phones ring every day, a decade after graduating. Once you are trained, you are part of our network of experts and will have support from our network of Alumni and faculty.
Most students who want to work in the private sector will have replaced their full time income by year two and are ready to go full time upon graduation. Learn while you train via telephone, internet, video conferencing via zoom, email, and one-on-one mentoring.
It is both a career business launch program and educational distance learning program.

replace the accredited universities which offer a 2 or 4 year degree in
criminal justice. However, this program trains you in the science of forensic document examination and teachesyou the skills required to be a court recognized expert in handwriting identification, forgeries, altered documents, and questioned documents. Many students start their own business and suceed as an expert witness making thousans of dollars per case. Law Enforcement and Government employees add this skill to their resume and become an even more valuable part of the agency, department, or court house faculty. Most our students work long after retirement part time as an expert witness into their late 70's. It is the perfect part time retirement plan. One of our faculty members is a retired detective from the nation's third largest sheriff departments. You will have excellent mentors and teachers.
