American Society of Crime Lab Directors (ASCLD): correct answers The American Society
of Crime Laboratory Directors (ASCLD) is a nonprofit professional society of crime
laboratory directors and forensic science managers dedicated to providing excellence in
, forensic science through leadership and innovation. The purpose of the organization is to
foster professional interests, assist the development of laboratory management principles and
techniques; acquire, preserve and disseminate forensic based information; maintain and
improve communications among crime laboratory directors; and to promote, encourage and
maintain the highest standards of practice in the field.
