Interviewers must be able to uncover the truth, half-truths and lies from the interviewee. Granted that even the best trained and experienced interviewers, will not be able to detect lies one hundred percent of the time. But given the proper training and practice, practitioners can achieve a high successful rate in detecting lies. They will be taught how to read facial expression and identifying deceptive behavioral responses through non-verbal indicators and inconsistent verbal content. The interview system developed over many years of experience will provide an effective method of evaluating subject interviewed to obtain the truth, including screening of information provided in the interview. Many local cases will be used including videos on live interviews to allow participants to apply the techniques taught in detecting deception in different types of cases and context.
