Palm Print Comparison Course - They Do Not Need to Be Difficult
24-Hour Focused Training on the Interpretation & Comparison of Palm PrintsPalm prints don’t have to be intimidating. While many examiners view them as the most challenging friction ridge impressions to analyze, this 24-hour course is designed to break down the complexities and turn confusion into confidence. Through detailed instruction and extensive hands-on comparison exercises, participants will learn how to recognize, interpret, and compare palm prints with clarity and accuracy.
Over the span of three days, students will explore the anatomical regions of the palm, understand how friction ridge flow differs across each area, and learn how to use those features to their advantage during comparison. By understanding the structure and natural “roadmap” of the palm, examiners will gain the skills needed to evaluate even the most difficult impressions with a high degree of certainty.
Ideal for latent print examiners, trainees, or anyone seeking to strengthen their ability to confidently analyze palm print evidence.
Palm Print Comparison Course
This course is designed for those new to the field of friction ridge comparison as well as seasoned examiners. Starting with full palm impressions, students will learn the basic anatomy and terminology as it relates to the palm. Through interactive presentations and hands-on practical exercises students will learn orientation clues, techniques, and red flags as they learn to identify the specific hand and its corresponding region of a partial or fragmented palm impression. Students will be provided with a packet of palm impressions and exemplars to match their predetermined skill level to work through during the three-day course.
