In popular culture, computer forensics training and criminal justice are associated with righteousness and adventure. The higher demand for specialists as well as the social awareness of the mechanisms that support the act of justice has determined many educational institutions to create programs, courses and distance learning formats dedicated to forensics. The offer of forensic science colleges is very wide and varied, depending on private motivation plus career goals. Different computer forensics jobs require different forms of training. Thereby, some will prepare you for on site investigations, others for laboratory jobs, others for data retrieval and so on.
There are two types of programs provided by forensics colleges: some for BA degrees and others for MA degrees. The competency is different for the two, the extent of the training depends on the nature of the job that one aims at. DNA lab function is a single like domain, and the selection criteria are usually met only by the candidates with a solid education in chemistry, biochemistry, genetics and biology. Applicants for MA degrees will benefit more from their studies and their time if they have some forensic work experience, if they don’t, extra courses will have to be attended.
Microscopy, forensic molecular biology, crime scene reconstruction, population statistics and lots of others represent just a few from the programs that need to be undertaken for a masters degree with most forensics colleges. Direct work experience is a must for the development of skills and the growth of a good career: techniques, methods and procedures are learned only if one is in first contact with them. This is where distance training is not that efficient, because people who choose programs that do not involve in-class work, will not develop the same skills. Consequently, distance education formats remain questionable even if they are accredited.

The application for forensics colleges is probably the first step towards building a career in the field of criminal justice. However, the first criterion is a perfectly clean personal record. You should have no convictions, no history of drug use or other similar problems that will get you discredited from the start. There are US states like Miami, where smokers are not allowed to train in the domain of forensics. Employment in the domain of forensics requires no form of addiction whatsoever. Although it seems rough, the nature of such criteria is understandable and so is their necessity.
