Many investigators and examiners are unaware or
unsure of how to utilize possible identifying evidence
contained in inadvertently photographed hands and
other ridge detail areas. Billions of images are posted
on social media and websites. Understanding this
increasingly common type of evidence is critical for the
modern-day fingerprint examiner. Being able to advise
investigators of the value of this type of evidence is
possible when examiners have the knowledge of what
is achievable. This presentation includes an update on
some more recent developments in this area, including
validation studies and some new Photoshop
techniques.

Join us for our June event, delivered by Senior Forensic Officer Linda Harrod-Eagles on Embedding Trauma-Informed Practice to Strengthen Wellbeing in Forensic Workplaces.

🔗 More information and registration here: https://linktr.ee/anzfssqldbranch

📍Queensland Police Service Headquarters, 200 Roma St Brisbane
🛜 Online via Microsoft Teams
🗓️ June 18th
⏰ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

This presentation examines why trauma-informed practices are needed in forensic education and how it can better support learning, wellbeing and resilience in high-stress professional environments. In forensic settings, personnel are routinely exposed to traumatic material, yet training often remains content-driven, instructor-led and insufficiently responsive to the individual needs of learners.

Drawing on research into the integration of trauma-informed pedagogy in forensic training, the presentation highlights gaps in current practice and explores how psychologically safer, more inclusive teaching approaches can enhance engagement, retention and performance. It will outline key findings and practical recommendations for embedding trauma-informed practice in forensic organisations, offering a timely and relevant approach to strengthening both educational outcomes and workforce wellbeing.
