LIVESCAN: Why Choose Anything Else in Maryland?

LIVESCAN: Why Choose Anything Else in Maryland?

You know as well as I do that getting your HQL and other training certs is easiest when you can get it all done at one place. No procrastination. No "I'll do it later". No worrying if you're within the 30 day limit or accidentally loosing your TCN/PCN number.


That’s why PTPGun.com offers Livescan Fingerprint service at 90% of our classes in Maryland.


Why can't I just go the State Police Barracks or Sherriff Department?


Not aware of any Maryland State Police barracks that offer this and many of the Sheriff's Departments do it by appointment only. But you are welcome to take time off of work and knock out the fingerprints then continue your paperwork at home. But why? Why not let our team get you taken care of instantly at one of our trainings? You're already here, why not double-tap?


Why choose Livescan?


Livescan fingerprints are an inkless, electronic system designed to capture an individual's fingerprint images and demographic data (name, sex, race, date of birth, etc.) in a digitized format that can then be transmitted to the MD State Central Repository (CJIS) for state background check processing. The data is forwarded to CJIS over a highly secured Virtual Private Network (VPN) and then processed by CJIS's Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS). Once received at CJIS for processing, the inquiry can then be forwarded to the FBI for electronic processing of federal background checks. All of this occurs within minutes and results in a biometric identification of an individual with little or no human interaction. Livescan can be used for criminal justice, government licensing, employment or other private use.
