Description

In this fast-paced investigative research seminar, you will learn to create more effective Internet searches to locate information crucial to your matters, which you might otherwise miss. We will reveal hidden Google search features and shortcuts to speed up your research. You will also learn to use free public record sites and sites with free "publicly available" information (including social media sites), for discovery, trial preparation, background checks and for locating missing persons. Discover the advantages (and limitations) of data broker databases. Don’t be left behind in exploiting this gold mine of information that will assist you in meeting your investigative research and due diligence obligations, in addition to meeting your ethical duty to be conversant with the benefits and risks of technology. We will provide some time for hands-on research time during the program, so feel free to bring your laptop or tablet, or even your phone.

 

About the Seminar Book: "The Cybersleuth’s Guide to the Internet"

Much of the investigative research information that was once only available to professional researchers from expensive, fee-based databases is now available for free on the Internet, if you know how to find it. By using the techniques in this book, readers will sharpen the tools necessary to effectively conduct free (and low cost) investigative research on the Internet before beginning their search.
