Investigations Training
We deliver nationally accredited training in diverse areas, which includes Certificate IV in Government Investigations and Diploma of Government Investigations, to employees in public sector agencies and departments both at the State and Commonwealth levels. We also deliver training programs to statutory bodies such as local government and water authorities.
Our courses are competency-based and contextualised to client settings. We train officers using highly practical exercises to improve skills and maximise workplace performance.
Our approach
At ACFEC, we use a learning pedagogy that identifies, designs, develops, implements and evaluates the client’s training needs. We implement this pedagogy through the full contextualisation of learning materials and assessment tools. In addressing the client’s training needs and course design, we use the ADDIE model of project management.
The design process gives effect to the risk management, operational, legislative and governance requirements of clients and ensures that the learning methodology is adapted to the particularities of the client.
