What training does IAAI offer?
IAAI offers an annual international training conference, local in-person classes, special seminars/events, and online training via CFITrainer.Net®.

I forgot my username and password for the IAAI website (firearson.com). What do I do?
Firearson.com has a lost password recovery function. In the Member Log In area at the top left of the page, click "Forgot Password?" and follow the instructions.

I haven't received Fire & Arson Investigator in a long time. Why?
The most common reason is because your membership has expired or been cancelled. Another possibility is that you moved and did not change your address in your IAAI Member Profile. Both of these issues can be taken care of by logging into your Account using the Member Log In at the top left of this page and fixing the issue (renewing membership or changing your address). A third possibility is that mail service can be slow to some areas and countries, therefore delivery of the journal can take an extended period of time.

When I go on the IAAI website, it will not allow me to complete an application/change my profile information/make a payment. What do I do?
Typically, this is because you are using Safari as a browser. Please try a different web browser. If you continue to have issues, please contact us at 800-468-4224.
