SeqGen is proud to have hosted a successful [International Narcotics & Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) of the U.S. Department of State](https://www.state.gov/bureaus-offices/under-secretary-for-civilian-security-democracy-and-human-rights/bureau-of-international-narcotics-and-law-enforcement-affairs/) and [U.S Department of Justice Criminal Investigative Training Assistance Program](https://www.justice.gov/criminal-icitap) forensic development assistance course to the Iraq Ministry of Interior - Criminal Evidence Division (MoI-CED) DNA Unit.  This course, completed by sixteen Iraqi forensic DNA analysts and their Major General, provided competency in the independent professional maintenance of genetic analyzers for criminal forensic DNA profiling.  This course was vital towards the MoI-CED DNA Unit’s ISO/IEC 17025:2017 technical and management compliance.
