Interviewing and Interrogation is often the most important and at the same time the most difficult phase of an investigation. Investigative Interviewing skills are required in many different settings - formal investigations by law enforcement agencies, internal investigations, security managers and investigators in private companies, auditor investigations, a lawyer questioning a witness or a client etc. It is through the successful application of psychological interviewing or interrogation techniques that the truth is established, valuable intelligence gathered and false confessions avoided. Too often, the only method which a law enforcement officer knows is the use of torture, resulting in false confessions, inaccurate intelligence and making the subject bitter. The Psychodynamics of Interviewing and Interrogation is an intellectual approach designed to obtain legally acceptable confessions.
This 2-Day course is designed for law enforcement investigators and participants from the private sector involved in investigative interviewing. Conducted by Supt (Ret.) Koa Fung Chew, the 2-day course is based on his more than 45 years of practical experience of using the psychodynamics of interviewing and interrogation. Since 1974, he has taught this art of interviewing and interrogation to more than a thousand local and foreign law enforcement officers, and other participants involved in investigative interviewing in the course of their work.
