This course provides law enforcement supervisors and investigators with the specific skills they can use to investigate both internally and externally generated matters. This training will include directions on the crucial steps that must be taken during the intake, investigation, presentation, and adjudication phase. You’ll learn how to organize an investigation, and proven methods for conducting thorough investigations based on the latest case law.

Attend this course and receive:

  • Step by step instruction on how to conduct internal affairs investigations and “leave no stone unturned”
  • Learn how new laws (such as California’s SB2) affect investigations.
  • Learn how to mitigate criminal, civil, and administrative liability for your officers and your agency.

Students Are Saying:

“My favorite part was being challenged by the instructor as well as their sense of humor. 100% recommend this for all our supervisors.”

— Sgt. Erin Montgomery, Elk Grove PD (CA)

“Before the class I didn’t feel prepared to handle an IA but now I do. Very worthwhile training.”

— Sgt. Ryan DeJohn, Santa Barbara PD (CA)

“This course is RELEVANT. I appreciated the instructor’s style. Most POST classes are taught by an irrelevant 100-year old retiree who speaks as if he is the ultimate authority. These instructors gave options, posed questions, and said it if they didn’t know the answer.”

— Sgt. Steve Boyett, Paso Robles PD (CA)

“Excellent course and instructors. My favorite part was their energy and the info they provided.”

— Det. Vanfleet, Simi Valley PD (CA)

“I enjoyed learning about all the laws and updates. This class is 1000% worth it.”

— Investigator Patrick Weithers, City of Long Beach (CA)
