Your Role in Protecting Privacy, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties Video─Following the republishing of this online video in the last reporting period, to ensure the functionality for users to earn a certificate of completion, IIR developed an online tracker to illustrate, in real time, the total number of certificates earned since the video was republished, as well as the number of certificates earned by agency. By the end of this reporting period, 3,840 certificates of completion were earned. More than 1,800 of these were earned by the Michigan State Police who were contacted and a success story developed and featured in the CICC’s Five in 5 weekly newsletters.
