This training was very informative and well organized. The presenter was very knowledgeable on the subject matter and delivered the information in a clear and concise manner. I would highly recommend this training to others. Note: The audio in the Power Point videos was glitchy and extremely hard to hear.

I honestly liked the class and the instructor & that it was online. I personally prefer to travel to classes when my agency allows. (The reason this class was a bonus for me was that I became ill and yet was still able to attend the webinar's, whereas if had been in an actual classroom I would probably have been compelled to not complete the class. Once my unit came back to work our agency had us move offices and this is the 1st I have been able to complete this survey.)

This was my first police technical course. I'm one of the IT guys for my department so I don't think most of the courses are targeting me as an attendee. I did enjoy the course and find it informative and I only have a few minor notes. -The microphone at times was muffled and difficult to understand, it might help to have it closer. -The choppiness of playing videos over a webinar format was a little rough. -I understand wanting to include some interaction for the course but unmuting people at random doesn't seem like the way to go about it. Too many people won't have one setup or might be mid-conversation about something else when you do it. I had to disable my mic on the second day to avoid that because I have people coming in my office and calling me ALL DAY. Quiet time to take a class doesn't exist. I didn't want to get unmuted while I was spelling out someones password. I thought the material was well organized and professionally presented and I think the handouts provided will be excellent reference points going forward for many different projects. I haven't spoken to our detectives that also took the course. I would have liked to get their opinion on the information presented and relay that as part of this review. We sounded like a pretty small department compared to some of the other attendees. We are in the process of vetting out using the Dark Web for our investigations in town but I worry too much will fall outside a local PDs jurisdiction to make the information usable. I still hope our detectives got something out of it too.

The class was well presented, but I felt there were too many video clips from the BBC special. The video clips didn't come over very well with the video conference either.

The instructor was credible, motivated and interesting! I would suggest to include a live demonstration on how to connect to a darkweb market (ex: get the onion link on dark.fail, access to the mirror links, captcha, login...)

I was very interested in taking this course. I don\'t have a lot of experience regarding the \"darkweb\". I have been an analyst for just over a year and it\'s a whole new ballgame for me. I appreciate your help, and information provided to give me a better understanding of what I will need in order to be successful if I am ever tasked with the challenge for ferreting out information on the darkweb. I enjoyed your class, I did get a little bit lost in the whole BitCoin portion, I am just not as well versed as I should be when it comes to BitCoin. However, I do feel that I have a better concept now and hope I can keep building on this foundation. Thank you very much for your time. I appreciate you taking the time to do this online course.

The instructor was very knowledgeable. The course itself was entry-level at best and should be marketed as such. It is the perfect class for those just entering the field and I would recommend it for that purpose. That being said, as with all training, I definitely learned new things.
