The National Center is pleased to release the Death Scene Investigation Learning Series, a 12-module series touching on different aspects of death scene investigation (DSI), with a special focus on sudden and unexplained deaths.
The series is for interdisciplinary professionals who either conduct investigations or who use the information collected in investigations for community-level response, child death review, fetal and infant mortality review, or other important agency functions.

• Best practices in DSI
• Strategies to collect thorough death information and data
• Relevant child development and safety information
• Agency responses to preventable deaths
• Community improvements catalyzed by examining preventable deaths
• Self-care for responding professionals and investigators
