The
CD-ROM contains photographs depicting procedures and methods
found in the forensic laboratory environment from many different
laboratories. Crime scene considerations include, search and
collection of evidence, hand washing, and the risk of aerosolized
bone dust during autopsy. Information is presented as text,
and in combination with pictures, audio, graphics, animation,
and video clips.
As
students progress through the lessons, there are eight (8)
pauses in the program where they will be referred to tabbed
sections in the Workbook to learn "site specific" information,
policy, or procedures. The CD-ROM will then show or explain
BFS specific practices. With your "site specific" information
in the workbook (e.g., crime scene evidence handling, reporting
exposures, waste disposal, job classifications with occupational
exposure, how to obtain HBV vaccinations, post-exposure medical
evaluation and follow-up, and the identification of a person
your staff can contact for questions), students will receive
comprehensive training.
30
final test questions are randomly selected from a pool of
60. Students pass by achieving a score of at least 80%. Remaining
questions would be used for the second final test, if necessary.
Students are "locked out" of the program if the second test
is not passed or if they start the course and do not complete
it in 14 days. Records of training and HBV vaccination status
are generated after passing the final test. If a student declines
vaccination, a declination form is generated for the signature
of the student and supervisor.
You
can make copies of the Workbook and load the program on many
computers or run the program from a CD-ROM drive. Minimum
system requirements: PC computer with a minimum 133 MHz Pentium
processor, Windows 95, and a 6x CD-ROM drive.
