THE CERTIFICATION PROCESS - IAAI CFI/NAFI CFEI
Neither certification process guarantees that the candidate is highly qualified or an expert in the field.
A few examples . . . An Attorney passes the bar exam, does that make him or her the best attorney possible? No!
A Doctor passes medical exams, does that make him or her a most qualified doctor? No!
Passing one’s drivers license examination allows one to obtain a license to drive, but it does not mean he or she is now a race car driver or even a good driver.
The “Expert Witness” designation in the courtroom depends on the Judge and not whether one has passed a certification exam. Will the Judge take into consideration that you have completed a certification program as a demonstration of your knowledge—yes?
At the end of the day, experience, training and knowledge will determine your ability as an expert in the field of fire investigation, not a piece of paper.
