Indiana is in the process of certifying all deputy coroners using standards set by the National Institute of Justice. Coroners are participating in the program on a voluntary basis. The goal is for all coroners and deputies to be certified by December 2000. They will attend a 40 hour course, complete an extern ship with a board certified pathologist, and pass an exam. 16 hours of continuing education are required annually.
