Happy Spring Everyone!

The executive and I have been working on updating our profile and will be launching a Facebook page shortly so we can provide information about who we are and what we do. This page is for all of us to comment on and place information on investigations happening within Canada that we are working on. We will also be launching a LinkedIn page also so that the same information can be shared around the world. These sites will be monitored by a couple of the executives so we can make sure the information getting out is correct and follows our policies.

Dear CAFI Members,

It is with great pride that I accept the position of President of CAFI. This National Organization has become and will continue to be a value to all our members across this great Country of ours. I would like to thank Val as he has led this organization with pride over the past two years and will continue to be a great wealth of knowledge for all of us.

Dear CAFI Members,

In speaking with CAFI members over the past few weeks I’ve noticed that maybe due to the length of my president’s messages, CAFI training news and happenings is not being disseminated.  I will thus attempt to make my message brief and to the point in the hopes that our news and events are better communicated to the greater membership.

Live fire exercises are one of the best training tools for teaching fire investigators about fire development, spread, ventilation effects, and fire patterns.

Join us on June 27th for an Upcoming CAFI Webinar on Arc Mapping, one of the four sources of information in Origin Determination with host Join Jason D’Ornellas, Electrical Engineer and Managing Partner at Roar Engineering in a review of the techniques of arc mapping, with case studies, utilizing arc mapping in fire investigations. Date: Wed, June 27, 2018 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM EDT - REGISTER
