The event was also highlighted by the launching of the CIDG Investigation Leading Procedure and Contact Tracing manuals, described as the fruits of the extensive experience of Ferro in investigation as well as the collaboration of experts which were put into user-friendly-take anywhere handbooks.
“The investigation manual is dedicated to the selfless detectives of the Philippine National Police, who provided the wealth of experiences that serve as my inspiration for this book and the people who nurtured and enriched my knowledge on investigation and the law, while the contact tracing manual is not a substitute for formal contact tracing training but a handy guide for dedicated contact tracing team members and non-members,” Ferro said.
