Geolocation & Call Detail Records (CDR) Webinar Series

The IACA Training Committee is pleased to announce our topic for the 2025 webinar series, Geolocation and Call Detail Record (CDR) Analysis!

This series is a comprehensive webinar series designed to provide in-depth knowledge on analyzing call detail records and geolocation data across various telecommunications carriers. Taught by Sarah Totten and Mike Winslow, each monthly session targets a specific carrier or application—starting with Verizon and moving through T-Mobile, AT&T, and other relevant technologies.

The series includes both analytical techniques and case studies, culminating in tools for visualization and courtroom preparation. Suitable for analysts at different levels, this series equips participants with the skills required for effective and advanced telephone toll analysis.

Please note that the instructors will not be teaching based off a particular paid platform. The November session will discuss various paid and free options to assist with analyzing CDRs.

All CDR series sessions will be recorded; if you cannot attend the live session, we will provide the recording within 2 business days. All registrants who are IACA members will receive Continuing Education Credits and you may request a certificate if you want one. For non-registrants, the recordings will be posted to the webinar library (for IACA members) after 45 days.

Students can either “mix and match” individual sessions as necessary or can purchase a series pass for all 12 sessions at a 25% discount. If you join the series pass mid-year, the price will be pro-rated and you will also receive the recordings for the previous sessions without the 45-day waiting period.

Most sessions will be held at 1400 Eastern on the 2nd Thursday of the month (except September which will be a week early due to the IACA conference). A full list of dates and topics:

The series cost is $135 for IACA members, $270 for non-members, or individual sessions are $15 for IACA members and $30 for non-members. For exact dates and times plus a description of each session, please visit our website here.
