Address insider risk and personnel vetting relevant to investigative interview skills.
Interview and Interrogation Skills in Security Investigations
Develop the judgement and the documentation needed to run investigative interview skills properly.
Course Overview
A control on investigative interview skills that is never exercised is an assumption, not a defence. Most security failures involving this strand of corporate security practice exploit a process gap rather than a technical one. They leave able to brief senior management on the corporate security practice capability in terms that support a decision. Across sectors, teams that rehearse investigative interview skills outperform teams that only plan it. The course sets out a working method for this strand of corporate security practice that participants can apply the week they return. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of the practice within corporate security practice and supervised application. Progress on investigative interview skills is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. It suits anyone whose decisions touch this part of corporate security practice, in large organisations and small ones alike. The programme closes with an action plan for the wider corporate security practice agenda that each participant writes for their own organisation.
