The HR Department maintains a database of professionals for consideration against future MPRI requirements. Acceptance into MPRI's database is not automatic. One of ICITAP's largest programs and biggest successes is in Colombia. Over 10,000 law enforcement officials were trained last year alone on topics as diverse as anti-corruption, expert witness testimony, financial crimes, and sex crimes. As part of Colombia's advancement, ICITAP Colombia has begun assisting the country as they come to terms with their violent history, and try to recover and identify the thousands of victims of forced disappearances. This assistance began with a series of formal dig schools to teach excavation techniques in 2006, and will be followed this year with the development of the Human Identification Center (HIC), a repository and lab for remains collected from around the country. To aid in these efforts, the ICITAP Forensic Science Section seeks forensic anthropologists with PhDs for the several paid positions. Please view our Forensic Anthropologists Needed for US Department of Justice ICITAP Projects for specific information on these positions.
