24-Hr. Investigative Interview & Interrogation - Montrose Police Department, Colorado - February 16-18, 2027

The 24-hour “Strategic Interview and Interrogation” course is designed to introduce law enforcement personnel to a method of interviewing skills, engaging directly in advancing evidence-based articulation.

This training will also give a greater understanding to the potential risks of relying solely on human factors by evaluating case studies, therefore reducing the risk of false confessions. Core components include the cognitive interview, rapport-building strategies, structured questioning models.

By integrating these strategies, law enforcement professionals will be better prepared to conduct interviews that withstand legal scrutiny, support successful prosecutions, and foster public trust. This class emphasizes practical application through scenario-based exercises and case studies, ensuring that participants leave with tools they can apply immediately and confidently in the field.
