Im interested in the further Osint training and cell phone investigation as well as the privacy and security for law enforcement subjects. If the other instructors and course content are the same I'll be signing up for more courses in the future.

I felt the class was too deep into the "tinfoil hat" protectionism and not enough actual searching for open source information. Also, the instructor stated he would email a list of open source sites to assist in investigations and he did not. All in all, I felt like the class was a waste of my time and of my department's training budget.

I anticipated more of a practical class about conducting open source investigations, as in we all walkthrough the process of obtaining open source info for a suspect... conducting practical exercises of a fictitious suspect account.

The instructor was fine with the material, but there needed to be more hands on, like make a psudo person and find them on line. There was not much open source. I still feel like I need to get warrants written to get the information.

There was too many sources that were quickly discussed and moved on before any notes or discussion about applications. I would quickly jot down the website then the instructor would move to another website. I did not get much from the class and was very put off by getting a sales pitch for access to a lot of the information that was discussed over the two days.
I would rather see application of the websites and how an investigator would be able to best use each one. I would also like to see just the top/best sites to access specific information. I don't need to have several sites discussed that do the same thing. Those other sites could be listed on training documents as additional references.
Overall the class was mostly boring and I lost interest after the first day.
