Certified in the Justice Information Exchange Model, which is necessary to participate in the Global Justice Information Sharing Initiative. Training began in April 2003 and ended in October 2004. Along with several DataMaxx personnel are many FBI and DOJ personnel from multiple states, as well as people from some Ohio companies: Optimum Technology in Columbus, RCC Consultants in Dayton, Maximus Inc. in Independence, and MWA Enterprises in Worthington, Ohio, plus the Montgomery County Ohio Clerk of Courts Director of Information Services and Chief Deputy of Legal,

Does this have any bearing on the fact that the Voting Section is now under the DOJ?

Global Justice Information Sharing Initiative
The efforts of the Global Justice Information Sharing Initiative (Global) Advisory Committee (GAC) have direct impact on the work of more than 1.2 million justice professionals. The importance of the organization's mission, however, positions Global to impact citizens of the U.S., Canada, and beyond. Global's mission---the efficient sharing of data among justice entities---is at the very heart of modern public safety and law enforcement.

Global is a ''group of groups,'' representing more than thirty independent organizations spanning the spectrum of law enforcement, judicial, correctional, and related bodies. Member organizations participate in Global out of shared responsibility and shared belief that, together, they can bring about positive change in interorganizational communication and data sharing.

The GAC advises the nation's highest-ranking law enforcement officer, the U.S. Attorney General. Global aids its member organizations and the people they serve through a series of important initiatives. These include the facilitation of the Global working groups; development of technology standards, such as the Global Justice XML Data Model, Version 3.0; creation of white papers on data sharing issues, such as the National Criminal Intelligence Sharing Plan; and the dissemination of information via the Global Web site.

The work of the GAC has implications of the highest importance---making it the foremost voice for justice information sharing.
