This is an OSS Academy® Statement Analysis Forensics online training course offered for Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.

When you ask someone a question, how do you know if they are telling the truth? Research indicates most people, including law enforcement officers and investigators, are not able to tell when people are being deceptive.

This course provides the background and basic process of Statement Analysis, also known as SCAN. It includes tools to aid in making an assessment of the truthfulness of a person’s verbal and written statements, and a Statement Analysis Checklist for your future use when analyzing verbal and written statements.

A companion course to this series is Street Level Interviewing, which focuses on verbal tactics for eliciting the truth.

Please note, the entire course final exam(s), and course evaluation(s) must be completed in order to receive one (1) hour of course credit.
