Interviewing & Interrogation Techniques for the New Millennium

In this interactive workshop, participants learn strategies to successfully interview both cooperative and hostile suspects to gain maximum information. Interviewing and interrogation techniques have evolved into professional interactions that draw heavily upon psychological principles for overcoming resistance.

The course focuses on five areas:

1. Rapport-building skills

2. Questioning techniques

3. Clues to nonverbal deception

4. Clues to verbal deception

5. Strategies for overcoming resistance

Participants try out new techniques. Successful interviews often result from a carefully planned interview strategy. Therefore, all participants will receive an interview plan outline to be personalized for the suspects they interview. [3 or 5 days]
