FBI Seminar        by  Connie Martin

fbi

Many of the Mosque Foundation Board members and staff attended a 3 day seminar hosted by the FBI.  The CREST program is a shorter version of the Citizen's Academy, which gives business and media executives, religious, civic, and community leaders a chance to get an inside look at the FBI.  Some of the topics presented included cyber-crime, civil rights, and counter-terrorism, as well as an overview of the mission, goals, history and internal workings of the FBI.  At the end of the training, participants received graduation certificates from Chicago Special Agent in Charge Robert Grant.
