Training and Conferences

Indoor Marijuana Grow
February 14 & 15, 2012  
Law Enforcement Center in Topeka, KS.

This two day (16 hour) Indoor Cannabis Cultivation Investigator's Course is designed to equip investigating officers and support personnel with the tools necessary to detect, prosecute and testify in indoor marijuana grow cases. Topics covered in this course will be cannabis horticulture, cloning and germinating plants, and cultivation equipment. How to locate and investigate indoor grows will be discussed in depth. Numerous case studies and investigations will be examined and critiqued.

One Pot Methamphetamine Cook Class
March 2, 2012
Army Reserve Center:  AFRC, Bldg. 688, Forbes Field, Topeka

The convenience, efficiency, and mobility of One Pot, aka Shake and Bake, cooks make it the preferred method of manufacturing methamphetamine in many states and record numbers of labs are being reported. These labs are extremely flammable and threaten the safety of law enforcement and the public. Manufacturing methamphetamine by the One Pot method is not difficult but understanding the process and following proper safety procedures is critical to the safety of those involved.

The one-day course will review the history and go over the chemistry to help law enforcement better understand the process and the hazards involved. Proper safety practices, including the use of various engineering, administrative and PPE hazard control options and procedures will be presented to assist law enforcement who handle, sample and dismantle these cooks. Proper and safe transportation and disposal requirements and procedures will also be addressed as more and more agencies are increasingly assuming this responsibility. The course includes a live One Pot cook demonstration at the conclusion of the course

To register for either class go to the MCTC website.  If you have any questions please contact Victor Riggin at (785) 633-8483 or (785) 368-9217.
