Testimonials
Thanks to you all for the high-quality professional training and the supportive and constructive manner in which it is delivered. My only regret is that I didn't access training like this earlier in my career.
Workplace Investigator
This was one of the most useful, practical courses I’ve ever done.
Child Protection Supervisor
I just wanted to say thank you for the opportunity of participating in the course. I am in a general duties policing role and when called up to conduct an interview, it is often with little notice or time to prepare. I feel confident and capable as a result of this course.
Police Officer
Of the courses I have completed in my career, this is one of the most useful.
Police Officer
On behalf of the clients benefitting from this improvement, I wanted to say I appreciate everything you have done for me. I cringe at the thought of the investigations I did prior to this training.
Police Officer
This training is one I am most proud of, and I have loved every challenge that came with it. It truly was invaluable.
Forensic Interviewer
It’s not very often that you do course with such a strong application component. I believe that’s the most important part of any course, but it very rarely happens.
Education Department Investigator
I have just reviewed a record of interview of a relatively inexperienced interviewer in my team who completed your course. He did a great job and employed the techniques with good success.
Executive Officer Parks and Wildlife
A trainee of yours told me that she had used the question techniques in court with a very reluctant witness and was so happy with how well they worked.
Workplace Investigator
I've had only good feedback from the course and staff have felt as though they've learned a lot of very applicable skills.
