foster+freeman Forensic Webinar Series Returns this for 2023 January

Beginning during the first COVID 19 lockdown, our forensic webinar series was originally conceived to help us maintain our vital connection with the forensic science community.

The webinar series has been a great success, covering a wide range of forensic disciplines, featuring numerous foster+freeman products, demos and presentations from industry experts and foster+freeman staff, and attracting a global audience of viewers from across the forensic science spectrum. Last year our webinar series also featured the launch of three new products (MVC FFLEX M, AARI and DISCOVER).

We are excited to share a new series of webinars with you in 2023, see below for information on our latest upcoming webinars, in addition to our comprehensive webinar archive, featuring recorded webinars available to view on-demand.
