Continuing Education Seminars OALI hosts three continuing education seminars each year. These seminars are provided to enhance learning and networking and to offer a means for investigators to meet the continuing education requirements of the Oregon Department of Public Safety, Standards & Training (DPSST). Those attending these seminars are sure to accumulate the required hours. OALI begins the year with the Spring Seminar, held in mid-March. In June, OALI hosts the Summer Seminar in conjunction with the Annual Business Meeting. The Fall Seminar is held in October. The costs to the members for the seminars vary, depending on the cost of the facility and the projected number of attendees. Seminar Tapes Each seminar is videotaped. These tapes provide an alternative means to earn continuing education credits. However, members are encouraged to attend our continuing education seminars. This is because we wish to provide all members’ access to their peers to exchange information, ideas and the building of camaraderie. For that reason, the costs of the videotapes will never be less than the initial cost of the seminar itself. The OALI Forum The OALI Forum is an e-mail discussion tool that members can use to ask questions, present problems, offer advice, and otherwise communicate with other OALI members. Members may click HERE to view the complete Forum Rules. They are posted in the members area under "Files and Publications" The OALI Web Site OALI maintains a web site at www.oali.org.
