Investigative Interviewing Reviews

Hi Tim, I wanted to express my appreciation for such a well-executed and impactful training session. From the moment it began, it was clear that the content was thoughtfully designed and delivered with real expertise. The session maintained a strong pace and focus throughout, and I found myself fully engaged from the introduction right through to the hands-on interview practice. Having previously trained police officers in interviewing, I’ve seen a range of trainer approaches, but your method stood out for its clarity, relevance, and adaptability to the SRA’s environment. The practical exercise was especially effective, allowing me to apply techniques in a realistic and constructive way. It was a great balance of theory and application. I came away with new insights and a renewed sense of confidence in my interviewing ability. Thank you for a truly professional and energising experience.

Excellent to have the opportunity to put interview skills and planning into practice and to obtain feedback from such an experienced interviewer. The role play exercise was extremely realistic and enabled me to practice the skills and techniques that had been covered in the training.

Training was really useful and informative and delivery was really engaging - looking forward to implementing what I've learned into my role.

I found Mr Sullivan to be well versed in his role as a trainer and he was able to use his professional expertise to make the training relational in every way. Quite interactive and engaging too.

jim is really engaging and dedicated to his teaching. However, the room we have been in for two days has made it less enjoyable. It smells terrible - like sewage - and has no windows. It's a real shame as Jim's training approach is flawless.

Really enjoyed the course, it was made interesting and relatable.

An enjoyable course that was well delivered by the trainer, Tim.

This was a refresher and very useful in my role as a DBI

Tim Kirkham comes from experience and this very telling. He understood and recognised when breaks were needed and kept the group well engaged. Highly recommend

Great interactive session, trainer kept us engaged throughout, regular breaks
