AFDE SYMPOSIUM 2013 - OCTOBER 10-13 - CHICAGO Area IL
The Association of Forensic Document Examiners [USA] was formed in 1986 as a professional organization for forensic document examiners. Our original goals were to provide quality continuing education, promote research within the field, establish a board certification program, and publish a journal devoted exclusively to document examination. We accomplished these goals and we continue to make an impact within the profession.
The AFDE annual continuing education symposiums are held in cities across the United States. The 2011 symposium was held in Louisville, KY. The 2012 symposium will be held in Phoenix, AZ.
The Journal of Forensic Document Examination is published annually and is available by subscription through the Westlaw Database.
AFDE is pleased to announce that it will again present the "Best Student Paper Award" for a student paper in forensic sciences given at the 2013 International Graphonomics Society (IGS) biennial conference.

Document examiners often use stereomicroscopes to examine details such as continuity of a writing line or interaction between ink and paper. Photomicrographs are used to demonstrate the observations in reports or exhibits for court.
