Loads of useful information.

Good class.

Great class for a novice or seasoned investigator.

This class is extremely beneficial for a wide array of members of law enforcement positions.

Excellent class. So many sites and social media outlets that I was not aware of. A lot of notes and pictures were taken so as to retain as much of the information as possible. Heavily saturated with valuable information.

The class was awesome. Many great points and resources. Definitely happy I took the time to follow-up. I’ve done several warrants using social media and have made arrests based off them. This was an amazing class!

Mr. Jerman, I just recently finished up your Social Media and OSINT introduction course. I really enjoyed the material and found it jammed packed with a wealth of knowledge in only 1 hour. Open Source Intelligence tools are a great way to obtain valuable info on subjects. I feel like these types of tools will be highly utilized in the near future and it’s great to learn now and get ahead of the game.

Nicks class is full of valuable information that can be utilized for any investigation.

I have been in law enforcement for over 20 years and been a part of the criminal investigations division for 10 of them. I have seen many advanced trainings offered over the years for the topics of open source and social media investigations. This is a challenging course to teach and share with others especially for just being a one day class. I have to say Nick nailed it and shared many great resources with the class and they were very useful and the best part is what any agency and detective likes to hear and that they are free. When it comes to technology and social media it changes so much day to day and the trainings I had a few years ago have pretty much became antiquated, so attending this class brought me back up to date with the new social media applications and web pages available to use for investigations. Overall I do recommend for anyone involved in investigations or analysist positions to attend this class even if they have had other training on the same topic.

I did not realize how much more obtainable information was until I went to this class. I really enjoyed getting more tools for the toolbox.

Very educational course. Instructor is a well of knowledge.

Content was great. Instructor kept class entertaining and is very knowledgeable

I attended Nick Jerman's Digital Discovery web class today. He did an excellent job and he provided so much information.

Got a taste of the Social Media Investigations course. It was full of resourceful links and demonstrations of how to get from a to b. Highly recommend. Have a couple new tools in the box.

Nick! I took your class last month and it was my first Blue to Gold class. I have to say that prior to coming to the class, I was in a slump in my career and had no direction. After seeing how energetic you were during class, it inspired me to try my luck with social media. Within two weeks, I was about to get four guns, and fetanyl off of our streets. THANK YOU for inspiring me. Your class was a career changer!

Nick is a wealth of knowledge. He has helped our agency out on multiple occasions throughout the past several years. He is always eager to help, and he always responds promptly. His course regarding open-source intelligence investigations has enhanced my skills as an investigator tenfold. I highly recommend taking one of his courses.

Nick has an awesome class. He knows his stuff and audience. Up to date information. He explains and gives examples that can be immediately applied.

I did internet crimes against children investigations 12 years ago. All the technology has changed. This was a fantastic class to get current tools, tips, and trends. Policing has become more technology based as criminals have started using social media and internet services.

One of the best classes I've been in, and I would highly recommend!

Class was extremely informative and gave links officers can implement immediately.
