Courses with proven techniques that can be applied in various accusatory & non-accusatory interview situations.
INVESTIGATIVE
STRATEGIES
Officers, young and old alike, are great at giving commands, such as: “let me see your license and registration”. Yet it’s amazing to observe how many shrink from going beyond this superficial communication to spending real time digging up critical information. It’s this information that is the lifeblood of good investigations and the genesis behind our investigative strategies courses. Many officers have just one interview style and if that doesn’t work they can get frustrated, argue with the suspect or quit. That's when you know your officers need a larger toolbox. Our courses provide all the tools, proven techniques, and teach the skills you need to succeed.​
