It was a very informative course. I was astonished by what one can find on the Dark Web and how easily it is accessible. The training will allow for further methods in trying to identify offenders.

Excellent instructor and course material. I had no clue this was available. The open source investigations training will be a great tool I will continue to use in my career. The instructor was extremely knowledgeable in the course material. I especially like the way he introduced the students to each other in the first exercise.

Great training with more information than can be covered in two days. Another day would have been great. Training staff and the location were great, but the WiFi was hit and miss. On day two the plumbing backed up and there were no bathroom facilities available in the building.

Due to the sheer number of sites and the limited amount of time to cover the material, a nice reference guide would be a list of the open source sites covered in the class and their uses.

A great course with exceptional subject matter that needs to be presented in more than 16 hours. Too much in too little a time frame to ultimately grasp all investigative techniques for Dark Web.

The instructor, David Ferris, made this instruction interesting and kept our attention throughout the technical areas that would otherwise have been quite boring. This block of instruction will be quite useful in my future work area.
