  • Rolling Fingerprints - Demo / Modeling

    Some of  “Recording for Ten-Print Submission” has been sectioned off to help you  Model proper ten card fingerprinting.  You can use all sections which are approximately 8 minutes long or use sections as desired if you have a time constraint.

    If you have no knowledge or little applicable knowledge of ten card fingerprinting, I advise you to use these videos for assistance.

    The videos are great to use if you want to use a step by step procedural method. Have your students perform each step after each section of the video has played. You should be observing the students and making appropriate corrections as needed.

    If you are more knowledgeable, you can perform each step after the videos have played.
