SwabTek is pleased to announce a series of webinars put on in a joint effort with the National Sheriffs' Association and Justice Clearinghouse. The series will focus on education and training for law enforcement professionals in the ever-changing landscape of policing.
The first webinar, scheduled for February 3rd, 2021, will focus on Fentanyl & First Responder Safety. Fentanyl and drugs containing fentanyl are the leading cause of overdose deaths in America. Law enforcement officers are encountering this deadly drug with increasing frequency during traffic stops, on calls for service, and while conducting searches of homes, business and jail facilities. The presentation will discuss the danger of fentanyl and how to safely conduct presumptive tests in the field to determine if the substance contains fentanyl. The rapid and safe identification of fentanyl by law enforcement officers in the field is the first step to safely collecting and processing that critical evidence.

- Fentanyl & First Responder Safety - February 3, 2021
- Intercepting Narcotics in Schools Post-Pandemic - March 3, 2021
