Law, Evidence, Procedure and Best Practice - overview

The way evidence is gathered has a major impact on successful regulatory control, enforcement and/or prosecution.

This practical, structured course equips delegates who have regulatory, enforcement and/or prosecution responsibilities with essential knowledge of law, evidence and procedure for their day-to-day roles in conducting investigations.

You’ll learn how to gather evidence to best-practice standards so that it’s relevant, admissible and credible.
