BackThe IOI is pleased to announce a 'Sharpening Your Teeth' workshop that will be held prior to the IOI World Conference 2012 on Thursday 8th and Friday 9th of November 2012 by André Marin, Ombudsman for Ontario, Canada.
This is a two day advanced course designed for professionals employed in investigative and administrative oversight capacities. Since 2005, the Ontario Ombudsman’s Office, under the leadership of Ombudsman André Marin, has pioneered an innovative methodology for conducting systemic investigations. The Special Ombudsman Response Team (SORT) which conducts the majority of these investigations has acquired a reputation for tackling issues efficiently and expeditiously. SYT is designed to demonstrate the unique techniques used by SORT and how they can be easily adapted by other oversight agencies for their own use.
Participants in this course will consider:
• The principles of effective investigations
• Planning an investigation
• Witnesses and interviewing
• Using social media
• Whistleblowers
• Assessing evidence
• Report writing
The cost to attend is $200 NZD for IOI Members, $400 NZD for non IOI Members.
