This Conference was enjoyable. All presentations were of value to all facets of LE. A different investigative perspective was given during this conference. I look forward to applying my educational experience with real world investigations. Great job to all and thanks to MGIA for the opportunity in career growth.

This was my first conference that I have attended (since I was hired during COVID). I thoroughly enjoyed it and learned a lot. My only critique would be that I would have liked for some of the presentations to be more of a "how to apply this to you or a how this could help you in your field" instead of just "this is what I do" and an information overload without instruction on how to use it/apply it.

This conference presented by MGIA is year after year is a great refresher for things like gangs 101, but also new material that we so desperately need to keep see on the streets and in our correctional facilities.

The conference is a great way to learn more about gang activity and trends as well as to make great contacts throughout the states for information sharing.

It was a good conference. The only thing that I would like to see more of would be about gang trends in the Midwest. How the gangs transport drugs and how the gangs network within their criminal enterprise.

I wasn’t sure what to expect, but look forward to coming to the conference in the future! Majority of presenters are captivating and we’re very clearly experts in their fields.

The course was great. The use of the videos was great and was well broken down. Sometimes the added captions were distracting, but great material.

Good material and videos. I think your missing the opportunity to have the chance to practice deceptive behavior detection during class. Have one student review a script and act out a role while another questions them and try to figure out the cracks in a story and what you think they might be up to.
