About NFSA

The Certified Forensic Manager Program (CFMP) is a program of National Forensic Science Academy (NFSA), an independent 501(c)(3), to provide the Forensic Science community with a primary location for professional certifications for a wide range of job roles, organization levels, and disciplines. The NFSA is the nation’s first and only body to certify crime laboratory leaders in laboratory management. The CFMP provides criteria to training and education providers that cover a comprehensive, consensus-based curriculum to prepare forensic scientists to become leaders. The training is designed for forensic science professionals aspiring to be leaders within their laboratories, unit supervisors, managers, and executives in public laboratories as well as units within police agencies or commercial laboratories. By requiring providers to maintain a specific level of topical coverage, the CFMP targets the students who finish those programs, offering them an opportunity to achieve professional certification in addition to completing the required training.
