Incident, Fraud & Claims Investigation The Foundation

Now that you can see the relevance of using the word Incident as opposed the other, let us explain how the basis of our teaching came about.

Having carried out many differing types of investigation and subsequently attended many training courses, specialising in individual aspects of investigation our Managing Director, Dean Hyde realised that there was a need for multi tasking skill sets required and not just individual aspects of investigation.

Increasingly successful candidates of Amalgam Training were asked to investigate other matters, such as fraud on the Insurance side and dealing with legal documents on the Personal Injury side.

Investigators, who had only been trained in one discipline, were being given an opportunity to not only increase their skills knowledge but also their earning potential by opening themselves up to a much wider sphere of work.

At Amalgam we decided that the best possible way to develop people who wanted a career as investigators to teach them a wider foundation of skills incorporated within our Certificate in Incident, Fraud & Claims Investigation.

Not for the faint hearted and only for those who are serious about reputation in the industry, our Level 4 course is aimed at technical knowledge and proof of understanding in producing thesis, rather than an exam based qualification. We prefer evidence of knowledge retention rather than a candidates ability to learn answers parrot fashion for an exam.

The course itself includes many aspects of practical and theoretical elements incorporating; investigating incidents, interview techniques in fraud investigation, witness statement taking and legal instruction to name a few.

This course gives a solid grounding in industry knowledge and processes and an opportunity for successful candidates to be taken seriously in an industry which relies totally on quality, reliability and consistency.

Level 4 as opposed to Level 3

We used to provide training at Level 3 and may do so again in the future for people wanting to get into the industry at a very basic level undertaking legal paperwork collection.

Course content, knowledge and understanding at Level 3 is primarily aimed at a supervisory role which is inadequate for the vast majority of work carried out by Incident, Fraud & Claims Investigators today. Our course is pitched at Level 4 which is aimed at a managerial level where independent decision making is extremely important and more appropriate for todays market.
