METROLEC (Metropolitan Law Enforcement Council) is a consortium of over 43 local area police departments and law enforcement agencies. The member communities of METROLEC acknowledge that certain critical incidents call for a law
enforcement response that may exceed the capabilities of anyone single agency and so they work together to help each other, and ultimately keep all of us safer and more informed. The Computer Crime Unit is one of six unique divisions operated by
METROLEC. It is made up of three units: Forensics, Investigative, and Education.
Members of this unit are long time members of the Education Unit which makes presentations for children and parent throughout the METROLEC communities and beyond.
This seminar is open to the public, but is strictly for parents and guardians so please
plan childcare accordingly.
