Description

The CTK Group’s Advanced Interview and Interrogation course is specifically designed for exceptional law enforcement officers whose primary focus areas are felony-level cases. The instruction reinforces the baseball diamond concept introduced in the Fundamentals course and applies the principles learned to homicides, sex abuses, narcotics, and other major crimes. This course examines the most recent research on interview and interrogation including the High-Value Detainee Interrogation Group (HIG), conversation management, the PEACE Method, and traditional interrogation training in the United States as it relates to cognitive interviewing for suspects, strategic use of evidence, and persuasion. The ever-challenging issues of jail and prison interrogations, false confessions, juvenile interactions, and Miranda invocation issues are addressed and explained in detail. Interrogation case studies in homicide and abuse cases are also included in the curriculum.
