Description Criminology is the scientific study of crime. It includes broad elements like nature, causes, consequences, responses by law enforcement and the methods of prevention. It is applicable to both individuals and groups. It is an interdisciplinary field that includes concepts and perspectives from sociology, psychology and statistics. Even after more than two-and-half centuries since its inception, criminological theories haven't lost its relevance even today. There were originally three major criminological schools: Classical, Positive and Chicago. These schools of thought were supplanted by various modern perspectives like cultural criminology, critical criminology, postmodern criminology, feminist criminology, etc. However, definitions of crime vary from one society to another but all societies strive to protect people from harm and punish serious criminal behavior. This course covers the important aspects of criminology like what constitutes a crime, how it is measured and what are the different types of criminal activities. What you will learn 1: Defining and Measuring Crime 2: Understanding Crime 3: How crime is measured 4: Victims 5: Getting violent - Crimes of Force 6: Property Crime 7: White Collar Crimes 8: Organized Crime and Gangs 9: The Narcotic Trade 10: Terrorism Course Outcomes After completing the course, you will receive a diploma certificate and an academic transcript from Elearn college.

About this Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) This 5 half-day Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) course will assist energy professionals in the planning and operation of a power system from renewable energy sources. The VILT course will discuss key operating requirements for an integrated, reliable and stable power system. The unique characteristics of renewable energy are discussed from a local, consumer centric and system perspective, bringing to life the ever-changing paradigm in delivering energy to customers. The course will explore the technical challenges associated with interconnecting and integrating hundreds of gigawatts of solar power onto the electricity grid in a safe and reliable way. With references to international case studies, the VILT course will also demonstrate the state of the art methodologies used in forecasting solar power. The flexibility of the invertor-based resources will facilitate higher penetrations of photovoltaic, battery electricity storage systems and demand response while co-optimizing customer resources. The contribution of inverter-based generators that provides voltage support, frequency response and regulation (droop response), reactive power and power quality with a high level of accuracy and fast response will be addressed. Furthermore, this VILT course will also describe how microgrids' controllers can allow for a fully automated energy management. Distributed energy resources are analyzed in detail from a technical and financial aspect and will address the best known cost based methodologies such as project financing and cost recovery. Training Objectives Upon completion of this VILT course, participants will be able to: Learn about renewable energy resources, their applications and methods of analysis of renewable energy issues. Review the operational flexibility of renewable energy at grid level, distribution network and grid edge devices. Understand and analyze energy performance from main renewable energy systems.
