| Kent E. Boots is a CDR Technician Trainer/Mentor and holds a current license/certification from Collision Safety Institute to teach the standardized curriculum for Level I and Level II CDR Technician Courses. The Level I & II Technician courses do not go into any analysis of the imaged data. Both courses are the basis for, and are a required prerequisite for, the CDR Data Analyst's course.
Starting in 2012 Kent now teaches part of the CDR Technician: Train the Trainer Certification Course. He instructs qualified and experienced CDR Data Analysts to train others to the Technician Levels I & II.

(CDR Technician Certification)
This course is best suited for field investigators, insurance investigators and adjusters, or those involved in vehicle documentation and examinations.
This "extreme" hands-on training follows up on the training received in the CDR Technician Level I course. It offers individual or small group guided instruction in the following:
◊ In vehicle DLC data imaging
◊ Module location and identification
◊ Direct-to-module data imaging
◊ Practical booster and adaptor applications (ACM, PCM)
◊ "Back powering" airbag control modules to allow in vehicle DLC data imaging
The instruction and subsequent hands-on approach combined with the evaluation by a Trainer/Mentor completes the CDR Technician Level certification.
Attendees are not required to own the Bosch CDR System in order to attend this training, although it is strongly encouraged. Attendees that own a CDR System should bring a laptop computer with the most current version of the software installed. The instructor's computer and CDR System will be available for use by attendees for the required in-class imaging of various modules.
Attendees of the FactualDiagrams.com Level II course receive a "re-powering rig", a $35 value.
