Message from the Trainer

"My style is to not lecture but present the facts. Based on what I’ve seen firsthand as a police officer, during my undercover investigations as a child online, as a parent, as a resource for schools and as someone who works with college scholarship committees and employers on background checks, I have seen both the positive and negative results of being online and that is what I relay to the students. What they do online right now can have an impact on their future. "
