Presented in 47 states since 1996, David Vine’s unique learning opportunities have helped more than 6,000 investigators and other professionals better utilize Internet. These programs are appropriate for the majority of computer users with average computer and Internet skills and a desire to find more relevant information faster and manage that information more efficiently with existing or free software.

The AISI workshop builds on advanced search concepts presented in the IFI workshop. The workshop includes hands-on practice using advanced search techniques as well as an orientation to the DVASEMINAR Group. AISI attendees should bring names of people, topics of interest or business names to use in practical exercises. Instructor presents concepts then guides students during the workshop practice phases. 
 
Learning objective: Understand how to better utilize search engines and advanced search techniques to obtain larger amounts of relevant information faster and build a free online system to manage that information.
