About iSMILE

Education built by cops, for cops.

iSMILE — Investigative Social Media in Law Enforcement — is the official education program of the SMILE organization. We train officers, investigators, and analysts to use the open social web as a force multiplier in the cases that matter most.

Our mission

Equip every sworn officer, investigator, and analyst with the tradecraft to use social media, OSINT and geofencing intelligence ethically, legally, and effectively.

Who it's for

Patrol officers, detectives, intelligence analysts, fusion-center staff, federal agents, and civilian investigators serving law enforcement agencies of any size.

Backed by SMILE

Born from the SMILE Conference — the nation's leading event on social media in law enforcement — iSMILE extends that classroom into a year-round, on-demand learning platform.

Built to certify

Every course is structured around clear outcomes, validated by quizzes and assessments, and concludes with a shareable iSMILE certificate.
