The agenda includes a tour of the Library of Congress where attendees will learn everything the LOC has to offer and how to research these records.

National Council of Investigation and Security Services, Inc. (NCISS) will spearhead a “Hit the Hill” Legislative event. If you have never attended a Hit the Hill session now is your chance. Learn how to lobby Congress; what legislation is currently pending and how it affects private investigators!

The NALI conference committee, in conjunction with NCISS, will have scheduled appoints for the attendees to meet with their Congressional Representatives.
