All of our training is conducted by Phil O’Brien a highly qualified and experienced workplace investigator. The programs have been developed as a result of  Phil having to investigate 100s of complaints of misconduct including bullying, harassment, sexual harassment, fraud, theft, misuse of resources including IT and email and many more.  The training is not just theoretical, it is based on actually incidents, complaints and issues experienced.

I have found that while jurisdictions/regions, countries and the size and type of organisations may differ the nature and behaviours associated with the investigation of misconduct including workplace bullying, harassment and sexual harassment remain consistent the world over.
