Hopefully this post will help and get to you before your interview.

The FBI manual is still the go to book for classification. I have not been able to find a website that allows you to practice classification, but there is certainly a need for one. I would recommend classifying the numerous fingerprints printed in the FBI manual then reviewing the classification rules for each pattern type to see how you did. Also, be a little familiar with the Henry Classification System.

Chances are there will be a lot of in house training around the subject. Kudos to you for studying beforehand. It will help out a lot during the application process and in the long run.

For a general overview of fingerprints I would recommend the NIJ Fingerprint Sourcebook.

For crime scene investigation the go to book is Practical Crime Scene Processing and Investigation by Ross M. Gardner.

For more recommended readings check out the Forensic Certification section of the IAI's site .

Oh yes, and know what the definition of a latent print is. There is a really good chance they will ask, and the question often trips people up.
