Certificate
This course will provide you with knowledge and skills to process and interpret biometric and facial comparison information for forensic examination. This includes conducting biometric (face, hand, eye and/or voice) identification and verification. A biometric technician compares digital and biometric evidence to make a determination on an unknown persons' identity. This includes providing advice on suitable technologies for organisational implementation.
This course is being re-accredited. You may be transferred to a replacement course in 2025 where changes to the subjects will apply. Staff will provide advice to students where appropriate.
It is recommended that applicants are currently working in a public or private sector agency that undertakes biometric work, are able to demonstrate proficient computer skills, and have an appropriate literacy and numeracy level.
