In this essential 5-day course, we thoroughly cover Incident Management in part one, followed by the Fundamentals of Investigations in part two.

During the Incident Management portion, participants will explore how incident management works and how individuals and teams can successfully implement and apply principles within their organizations and/or work environments. Incident Management involves returning your organization’s everyday business safety, productivity, and overall operation, to normal as quickly as possible after an incident. Topics such as principles of incident management, incident management methodology, and incident typology will be covered in detail.

During the Fundamentals of Investigations portion, participants will explain and demonstrate crime scene searching, recording, collecting, preservation of evidence, conducting interviews, follow-up meetings and case preparation. Participants will explain and demonstrate their knowledge of the basic investigatory process by participating in role plays designed to apply the skills required to deal with problems encountered during interviews, interrogating suspects, evidence collection and legal admissibility, while applying techniques to secure the environment during an Investigation.

This course uses a variety of methods including case studies, role plays, presentations, videos and group exercises/activities to facilitate the learning process.
