Interviewing suspects doesn’t have to be hard and you shouldn’t have to wait until you’re a seasoned detective to learn how to do it. In our course, there’s no multi-step procedure to learn. Instead we’ll show you how to cut through the confusion of conducting interviews with practical concepts you can begin using immediately. You’re going to be amazed at how much confidence you have after this training!

How Is This Course Different?
Legal Considerations
You Need to Know:
Some antiquated interviewing techniques have been implicated as being coercive and potentially causing false confessions. Using those outdated techniques can be disastrous for not only an innocent person but for you and your agency. In the U.S., new laws such as California’s AB 2644 will require law enforcement officers to be trained in techniques that avoid “psychologically manipulative interrogation tactics”. Our interview courses have always and will continue to avoid teaching such tactics (that’s not something our competitors can claim.) If you are ready to learn modern techniques that are not only legal but also highly effective, get registered today.
