This course will cover Background Investigations of public employees with a primary focus on police officer hires.  The course is designed for an investigator who has never done or has completed a limited number of background investigations.  Attendees will leave with the skills necessary to complete a thorough and complete background that not only meets Minnesota POST board standards but exceeds them.  In addition, they will be able to provide their agencies with the critical information administrators need to make the accurate decision pertaining to a candidate’s employment with their agency.
