We’re delighted to announce the programme for our eleventh National Analyst’s Conference (NAC). This hugely popular event has established itself as one of the highlights of the analyst’s calendar.

 

It brings together the analysis community to debate current best practice and the issues that matter to the profession. It also recognises the pivotal role analysts play in complex data-driven investigations.

 

Previous events have been attended by analysts from police forces, other law enforcement and government agencies, as well as the wider public and private sector. All analysts are welcome to attend whatever your organisation.

 

Our eleventh conference features a packed programme of inspirational presentations from practitioners who will showcase their innovative work to their peers.
