CTS at IAI 2026

Our technical staff had a great time traveling to St. Louis, MO for the International Association for Identification (IAI)’s 110th Annual Educational Conference! Engaging with current and prospective customers, forensics industry personnel, and quality assurance professionals, we were able to gain valuable feedback on our testing, which allows us to best address the changing needs of the community.

We received a generous amount of positive feedback for our Latent Prints & Impressions testing, a discipline that we have been proud to expand with our on-demand testing option to accommodate examiners and teams requiring a more flexible testing schedule. We were also made aware of the growing demand for on-site Crime Scene Processing testing for those seeking accreditation through ANAB and A2LA, and we are excited to continue providing this semi-customizable testing to organizations around the world. These conversations—which allow us to develop testing that continues to evolve alongside the rest of the community that we are a part of—were also, above all else, a great chance to connect with the teams and organizations that we serve.

We also had the opportunity to attend technical sessions throughout the conference, one of which even used our testing as a starting point for observations about footwear often analyzed in case scenarios, leading to new conclusions, recommendations, and suggestions for future developments. Our testing being more than just an assessment tool and providing meaningful data for the future of the field is always exciting and special to see!

Thank you to everyone who visited our booth or said hello in passing—we look forward to seeing you next year in Dallas, TX!
