About This Course

When you receive an allegation of workplace harassment or discrimination or believe your organization has become a victim of fraud or theft - taking prompt action is your legal responsibility.

But let's face it: most HR professionals or business owners have never had formal training in how to conduct internal investigations. And without having the proper skills in how to handle allegations in the workplace - and investigate them effectively - employees may feel their complaints are not taken seriously internally.

As a result, they take their complaints externally - to the EEOC, DOL, or to their attorney. Therefore, our Internal Investigations training course is a must-attend for those individuals that are responsible for employee relations and the handling of internal investigations.

After all, is the time to learn how to do an internal investigation when you are suddenly faced with having to do one? Of course not. That's where our training can help!

...the most valuable training program I have experienced in a long time!

...the real life scenarios from the other participants and instructor very helpful.

...The instructor was fantastic. She was very knowledgeable and fluid with the training material, and allowed Q&A throughout the entire class.

...one of the few courses that specifically focuses on investigations and is very well done. The "tips", real case stories, and role-playing exercises result in a very pragmatic course that has actual on-the-job impact. Great course!

...I found the mock investigations to be the most helpful part of the training. It allowed the group to put into practice what we had learned during the first part of the seminar and apply it to situations we might encounter or have encountered in our own workplaces.

...Our presenter Mary was very interactive and hands on. She would answer any questions and really take time to make sure that we understood everything.
