SUMMARY:International Investigator Course
DESCRIPTION:Since its inception\, IICI has run 40 International Investigator Courses. The course is our flagship two-week residential course covering the essential investigation skills for international criminal and human rights investigations. \nThe course involves a range of seminars and roleplay exercises\, including several days at the Dutch Military School of Peacekeeping. \nIt is an intensive course aimed at those with an existing level of professional competence and experience in investigations or related areas.  Its workload and exercises are deliberately designed to replicate the pressures of an investigation mission environment.  By the end\, trainees will have an enhanced knowledge of international law and be able to identify the required elements of international crimes and violations. They will be able to plan an investigation strategy to collect evidence to prove those required elements. They will have the basic skills to document a crime scene and to interview witnesses and victims in order to collect evidence a standard admissible for criminal prosecution\, human rights reporting or other documentation purposes. They will know how to do so in a manner which protects themselves\, their witnesses and their evidence. \n	Apply here! This link opens in a new tab
