Course Description
Cellebrite Evidence Repair Technician – Forensic (CERT‑F) is an expert‑level, five‑day course focused on repairing damaged digital evidence to enable successful forensic data extraction.
This hands‑on course teaches investigators how to diagnose hardware failures and perform controlled mobile device and USB media repairs while maintaining forensic integrity. Students gain practical experience restoring device functionality so critical data can be accessed, extracted, and analyzed when standard workflows fail.
Course Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
- Diagnose and repair damaged mobile device evidence in a forensically sound manner
- Restore device functionality to support successful data extractions
- Perform controlled disassembly, repair, and reassembly of mobile devices and USB flash drives
- Apply heat and manual soldering techniques without compromising evidence integrity
- Earn the CERT‑F certification by passing a practical competency exam
What You’ll Work On
- Hands‑On Repair Focus Includes:
- Mobile device diagnostics and failure analysis
- Port, screen, and button replacement
- Heat‑based component repair
- Manual micro‑soldering
- USB flash drive repair and recovery
Optional Training Kits
Optional kits are available for students who want to continue repair and chip‑off techniques outside of class.
Additional fees apply.
CERT‑F Kit Includes:
- Precision soldering and heat‑application tools
- USB flash drive and data‑port repair accessories
- LCD screen and button replacement set
(Training kits are not required to attend or complete the course.)
When This Course Matters: When damaged, non‑functional, or physically compromised devices prevent standard forensic extraction workflows.
