Upcoming Employment Law Training Sessions

WEBINAR

Limited spots for our “Internal Investigation Intensive” are now available!

As experienced employment lawyers and impartial workplace investigators, we conduct hundreds of public and private sector investigations every year. We bring that expertise, and our commitment to providing the best possible training experience, to this three-day workshop.

On the first day, we cover investigation fundamentals. From creating a workplan to handling witness representatives and everything in between, we provide practical guidance and cutting-edge legal analysis for every step in the investigation process, including:

• Applicable legal requirements
• Determining the scope of the investigation
• Key questions to ask complainants, respondents, and witnesses
• Assessing witness credibility
• The appropriate evidentiary standard
• Drafting legally compliant investigation closure notices
• Compiling relevant documents and electronic information
• Preventing retaliation and future misconduct

On the second day, attendees participate in a mock investigation, and do everything from conducting interviews to reaching factual findings. We update our mock scenarios every year, and provide coaching and constructive feedback throughout the day.

On the third day, we take attendees step-by-step through how to write effective investigation reports. As all experienced investigators know, this is the most challenging part of the investigation process. We show you how to keep reports simple and direct, and ensure they can withstand legal scrutiny.

Poorly done investigations can cost employers millions of dollars. With our help, you will be prepared to do your best work.

Attendees receive our trademarked “Investigator’s Manual” that contains checklists, sample interview outlines, and a sample investigation report.

This workshop is appropriate for investigators of all levels and experience. No prior background is necessary.

Eric Glassman, the trainer for these sessions, has extensive experience conducting investigations and training others on the subject.
