VM Mastered Investigation Skills Workshops

VM Mastered offers three hands-on workshops focused on developing key investigation skills.

  1. Interviewing Techniques and Evidence Collection Workshop
    The Interviewing Techniques and Evidence Collection Workshop is a hands-on training program focused on the key elements of investigative evidence gathering. This includes identifying relevant evidence, drafting quality interview questions, and conducting strong interviews. Participants will have the opportunity to observe and conduct investigative interviews based on hypothetical complaints.
  2. Analyzing Evidence and Evaluating Credibility Workshop
    The Analyzing Evidence and Evaluating Credibility Workshop prepares attendees with the skills to evaluate the evidence gathered throughout the investigative process. The workshop includes intensive practice with the credibility factors. Additionally, learners will participate in exercises related to determining the reliability and weight of evidence in hypothetical investigations.
  3. Documenting Analysis and Findings Workshop
    The Documenting Analysis and Findings Workshop is designed to allow learners to practice the key skill of investigative report writing. Learners will review evidence for hypothetical complaints and write clear findings and an analysis of the evidence using credibility factors. VM Mastered will incorporate any templates or forms used by the organization to ensure the training is reflective of current practices.

VM Mastered customizes every workshop to reflect an organization’s unique policies and practices. A member of our VM Mastered team will meet with key stakeholders before the training to identify goals and customize training elements to meet the learners’ needs.
