Also posted on USA Cops Overview and Synopsis: This communication will serve as official notice that CJS will accept the listed presentation as being available to a NC criminal justice officer participating in the NC Criminal Justice Education and Training Standards Commission Law Enforcement Officer Certificate Program, either at the intermediate or advanced level. Mark Dearry Training System Manager/CJS It is understood that one of the most basic forms of matter are the gases that make up our atmosphere. Much is to be learned about the gases we breathe and the effects they have under certain circumstances. It is also understood that the diver, recreational or commercial, understand these properties as well as the behavior of these gases under hyperbaric conditions. This workshop is a review of these principles and affords further understanding as to the necessity of safe diving practices. Many of the gas laws reviewed, or as part of a curriculum in recreational diving, are not adequate enough to give the diver the education and understanding necessary to dive as safe as possible. This has become quite prevalent in studying mortality rates among recreational divers. One of the focal points of this workshop is to review typical gas laws associated in recreational diving and extend this knowledge base beyond that level. The Anatomy and Physiology and the Pathophysiological are included in order to provide clarity of each gas law and the effects of each. The subject matter extends beyond the gas laws to include the following: Morning workshop: 4 hours given in 55 minute increments. 1. Overview of Responsibilities and Qualifications of those involved in Crime Scene and Death Investigations. 2. Documentation: including the: how, who, where, when and what. 3.
