History

Pavel [41]3 years ago

Fingerprint matching is determined through unique characteristics. To achieve it must have certain ridges. loops and whorls. The characteristic points are then compared to the prints on the system. When forensics finds that there are enough similar matching points, they state whether they are fingerprints in which they match or not.

It is assumed that prints are one hundred percent positive, that is their use is one hundred percent successful with a zero error.

However, the prints are not considered scientific evidence, but it is still a presumption. There is never a hundred percent matching the prints, but just the similarity within the prints.

What are transferable skills?
zaharov [31]
The term "transferable skills" describes any skill or talent that can be taken from one kind of job to another. Its opposite is specific or dedicated skills. So a specific skill might be when someone learns how to use a specific kind of computer software that is used only at one workplace. Since that software isn't used anywhere else, knowledge of how to use it isn't a transferable skills. But the same worker, in the process of learning how to use that software, might also have learned a lot about how to use computers. That knowledge of how computers work IS a transferable skill, since it can be valuable in a lot of different workplaces.
