The IHIA will be in the capital city of Canada (Ottawa, Ontario) for our 4th iteration of the DNA & Genealogy training summit. 

All presentations will take place at the Ottawa Marriott Hotel in downtown Ottawa.  

This 2 1/2 day of training will be full of outstanding case studies, lessons learned, practical and hands-on training specifically designed for law enforcement investigators, prosecutors, and support personnel.  

*This training summit is for law enforcement officials and those working directly with law enforcement.  Those without governmental contact information will be vetted by the IHIA board to determine eligibility.  This includes Genetic Genealogists, who are not employed by law enforcement agencies.  Genealogists must work directly with law enforcement and must be able to provide a law enforcement contact as a reference.  If you have questions, please email Steve Lewis. 

The cost is $375.00 (USD), which includes all training materials, an IHIA membership, and a Social Networking Event.

Active IHIA members pay $325 (USD) for the course!
