Investigative Interviewing reviews

AI summary of reviews

Real-world expertise and practical interview practice are the course’s defining strengths. Attendees value trainers who explain complex legal and investigative interviewing principles clearly, use relatable anecdotes and adapt examples to different roles. Interactive role plays, scenarios, quizzes and group discussion help turn the PEACE model, questioning techniques and preparation into usable skills, leaving learners more confident at work. Some feel the packed timetable allows too little practice, particularly in role play.

Bar is higher than in my usual employment investigations but very helpful to have understanding of the standards for a PACE investigation

Would have like a bit more focus on whistleblowing, fact finding interviewing

Jim was an excellent trainer who clearly has plenty of experience and made the course stimulating over a long two days! Really good at creating a space where people can feel open to suggest ideas and answer questions/test things out. I think the one aspect which I personally would have benefitted from a bit more in depth is practicing the interview style, specifically in relation to types of questions we should and should not be answering. Its very easy to fall into traps of poor questioning technique, and an opportunity to be observed and get feedback would've taken it to that next level of detail for me. Beyond that, really good course - thank you Jim!

Jim made the topic interesting and engaging, drawing on lots of examples from both his career and from the news. Everyone on the course contributed at one point or another which was really great to see. There was a mix of smaller breakout rooms and whole group discussions, as well as a mixture of presentation slides, videos, and verbal discussions. Would definitely recommend this course.
