FOR OVER 70 YEARS...


John E. Reid and Associates has been
providing the most up-to-date and effective
training available in the world in the specialized
skills of conducting investigative interviews
and interrogations. In fact, our courses have
become required training programs for
hundreds of departments and organizations
throughout the country.


Visit www.reid.com to learn about:


• Our work with the Innocence Project
• Why several courts have admonished investigators because they did not follow guidelines
• Why we are referred to as the benchmark for proper interrogation practices and procedures
• The most recent research that supports and confirms our approach, tactics and techniques
• Our best practices


Here is what you will learn at this training program:


• How to interpret verbal and non-verbal behavior to assess the credibility of a victim, witness or suspect’s statements
• How to use behavior provoking questions in the interview process
• How to use THE REID NINE STEPS OF INTERROGATION® process to:
 Develop interrogation strategies
 Develop themes (persuasive statements)
 Develop the alternative question to elicit the first admission
 Handle the more defiant subject and ‘overcome objections’; address the subject’s fears; move past the subject’s denials and motivate the subject to want to tell the truth


THE CORE PRINCIPLES that form the foundation of our training programs include the following:


• Always treat the subject with dignity and respect
• Use empathy, sound reasoning, and logic to elicit the truth and do not make any promises of leniency or threats of harm or inevitable consequences
• Do not conduct interrogations for an excessively lengthy period of time
• Do not deny the subject any of their rights
• Do not deny the subject the opportunity to satisfy their physical needs
• Exercise special cautions when questioning juveniles or individuals
with mental or psychological impairments


Your investment includes:


An extensive training manual that you can use as reference material back on the job, and a certificate of course completion.
We develop investigator tips, newsletters and updates for continuous education for our clients.
