International Association of Marine Investigators

Each year, the International Association of Marine Investigators (IAMI), in conjunction with its annual meeting, sponsors a three-day training seminar that is open to all members and to all interested law enforcement officers, insurance investigators, surveyors, and Coast Guard officials. These seminars normally cover various aspects of marine theft and fraud, boating accidents, and very specific investigative techniques to assist investigators. Examples of topics include HIN formats (raising, tracing, lifting), bank and insurance fraud investigations, fire/arson investigations, updates on NCIC 2000 and VIDS, and changes to Coast Guard regulations and policies. The event includes access to classes, a president's reception, a banquet, and a networking suite.
