ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Investigative Interviewing – Level 2 Advanced is designed exclusively for participants who have completed Mastering Investigative Interviewing – Level 1 and are ready to progress from understanding investigative interviewing techniques to applying, testing and refining them in practice.
At this advanced level, the emphasis shifts from knowledge acquisition to demonstrated application and performance. Participants are expected to draw upon the foundations established in Level 1 including profiling, memory management, questioning and probing, cognitive interviewing, conversation management, elicitation, deception management.
The programme begins with a focused refresher of Level 1 principles. Thereafter, 1.5 days are dedicated to intensive preparation and practical application. Each participant will select three to four investigative interviewing techniques most relevant to their work and professional development needs.
Through structured role plays, workplace-based scenarios, facilitator observation, coaching and repeated practice, participants will have the opportunity to apply, receive feedback, adjust and reapply their selected techniques. Rather than following a one-size-fits-all practice programme, Level 2 enables participants to concentrate on the areas where they most need to strengthen their capability.
A key feature of Level 2 is its personalised learning approach. Before attending, participants identify the techniques they want to practise and provide a short scenario reflecting investigative situations they typically encounter at work. This enables the practical sessions to be aligned with their actual responsibilities and challenges.
The programme culminates in video-recorded practical role plays and individual skills assessment. Following the programme, participants receive their recorded role-play video together with personalised facilitator notes and assessment, giving them a tangible reference for reviewing their performance and continuing their professional development.
