CPD training

Upcoming webinars:

When Facial Recognition Technology Goes Wrong

Presenter:

Ryan Fitzgerald, Associate Professor of Psychology, Simon Fraser University

Description:

Courthouse Libraries BC is proud to support the Criminal Defense Advocacy Society (CDAS) in presenting: When Facial Recognition Technology Goes Wrong.

Facial recognition technology has changed how police generate investigative leads from surveillance footage by enabling comparisons against vast databases of stored faces. However, due to limitations of both the technology and the humans who review its results, misuse of facial recognition technology has contributed to numerous high-profile wrongful arrests.

Participants in this presentation may claim up to 1.5 hours of CPD credit with LSBC.

Date and time:

Monday, March 30th 2026 12:30PM to 2:00PM
