I've been asked to source training for staff who will take on the role of investigating officer, i.e. dealing with the investigation stage of grievances and disciplinaries. They will have support from HR, but will be expected to lead the investigation process. Does anyone have experience of this and can you recommend any providers?
We are likely to have about 12 or so people taking on this role.
Thanks.

Investigations
Hi
We tried two approaches. We used all the analogous internal reference points in our disciplinary/grievance procedures coupled with best practice from arrangements for both recruitment/selection and performance assessment.The plus side was that we got joined up thinking but it took so long
wITH 12 PEOPLE though,you may find it is suitable
Secondly,we found a very good trainer who locked into the foregoing but brought his own skills/background as a casework investigation officer. Result but a scenic way around the issue for us

Hi Howard
I have recently developed a course for managers in a county council who will be the initial investigating officers of complaints received. I would be happy to chat to you about this project. Do email me with your number and I will call you.
