This comprehensive, hands-on training is designed to provide participants with the knowledge and practical skills necessary to accurately collect, process, and submit biometric identification records in accordance with state and federal standards. Instruction will cover proper techniques for capturing and submitting ten-print arrest and booking fingerprint records, palm prints, and digital mug shots, as well as the effective operation and troubleshooting of Livescan fingerprinting systems.
Participants will also receive guidance on civil fingerprinting procedures, including the use of the Kansas Criminal History Access Tool (KCHAT), and will learn how to utilize two-finger capture devices for identity verification and record searches. Additional topics include identifying and correcting common submission errors, understanding Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) responses and reports, and ensuring the quality and accuracy of biometric data submissions.
Throughout the course, students will participate in practical exercises and hands-on fingerprinting scenarios designed to reinforce proper fingerprint capture techniques, improve image quality, and increase confidence in processing both criminal justice and civil fingerprint transactions. Upon completion, attendees will have a better understanding of fingerprint identification processes and the skills necessary to produce accurate, reliable submissions that meet established standards.
