Class was cool

Great work at teaching. Kept it interesting

Good

I attended the Open Source Investigations class in Westlake, Ohio, led by instructor and veteran detective Nick Jerman, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. From start to finish, the day-long course was engaging, practical, and extremely relevant to modern law enforcement challenges, particularly as they pertain to social media. Nick is an outstanding instructor whose teaching style is clear, confident, and grounded in real-world experience. He brings a wealth of knowledge to the table and has a unique ability to make complex investigative techniques both accessible and actionable for officers at all levels. He kept the class interactive and entertaining throughout. The Open Source Investigations course itself is a must for anyone looking to enhance their digital investigation skills. The material covered included cutting-edge tools and tactics for gathering open-source intelligence online—tools that are critical for staying ahead in today’s fast-paced and ever-evolving environment. Nick did a phenomenal job of demonstrating how to apply these methods both ethically and effectively in the field. Whether you’re a patrol officer, investigator, or supervisor, this class delivers knowledge you can immediately put into practice. If you get the chance to learn from Nick Jerman, take it—you’ll walk away better equipped, more informed, and more confident in your ability to navigate the open-source landscape.

Great instructor. Knowledgeable, engaging, and funny. Definitely able to soak in the material with his style of teaching
