Historically, law enforcement training academies have used anecdotal training techniques to prepare first responders to conduct interviews. In recent years, trainers have adopted science-based interviewing for criminal investigators. Science has documented that the greatest predictor of a case being solved was the amount of time spent conducting interviews. A social construct has also been identified that occurs during investigative interviews that inhibits the amount if information collected during those interviews. FLETC has implemented science-based interviewing in all basic training programs for criminal investigators as well as all first responder programs.
