Investigative Decision-Making Masterclass

Master high-stakes investigation decisions: advanced 3-day course for fraud investigators, compliance officers, and risk professionals.

This 3 day scenario-based and immersive training course relevant to all experienced personnel engaging in investigations both the public and the private sectors.

This advanced course focuses on the core skills of the investigator and is designed to take the investigator beyond the textbook and enable them to develop an investigative mindset and a non-linear approach to investigation. The overarching objective of the training is to enable those involved in the collection, evaluation, assessment and management of investigations to develop the skills that inform decision making.

The course is a mixture of blended learning, such as practitioner focused presentations and interactivity, rather than a purely theoretical approach. It includes the provision of tools and templates.

Day 1

The Intelligence Analytical Techniques course develops the methodology of problem solving and how they are applied. This will cover:

• Key legislation.
• Case management and file preparation.
• Sources of intelligence and financial profiling.
• Analysis, evidential presentation of banking documents.
• Interviewing witnesses and suspects.
• Briefing and communication of intelligence.

Day 2 and 3

The delivery moves from theory to practical application of intelligence and analytical methodology:

• Lateral thinking and assimilation of intelligence.
• Charting techniques.
• Open source investigation briefing and dissemination.

Days 2 and 3 of the course comprise an immersive exercise based upon a full investigation scenario. Delegates will be given information and intelligence electronically and will work in teams to devise an investigation strategy. As they work through the case they will record their decision making and at the conclusion each team will prepare a short 10-15 minute presentation on their findings. This is a test of collaboration, decision making, lateral thinking and the development of an investigative mindset. Delegates will work from laptops, conduct open source enquiries and work through a series of investigative dilemmas.

This course program also will include the presentation of case studies from using analogous legislation which will demonstrate the process of fraud investigation, and the identification of fraud and money laundering offences. The concluding exercise employs an unfolding fictitious scenario using a variety of media and documents that an investigator may expect to receive or uncover during the course of an investigation.

The immersive learning will allow participants to use the learned theoretical principles and practitioner skills taught in a simulated analytical environment in which they will be required to demonstrate strategic, tactical and critical thinking against set exercises and objectives.

This course will benefit all private and public sector experienced professionals regardless of previous training experience.

This course is particularly relevant to:

• Authorised officers.
• Regulatory/investigative bodies.
