This Q&A book consists of over 200 multiple-choice questions designed to test trainee investigators studying for the National Investigators' Examination (NIE). The Q&As are arranged in the same order as the chapters in the "Blackstone's Police Investigators' Manual 2006" so as to aid learning and check understanding. This book also contains a useful section on how to study for the NIE, including advice on how to approach multiple-choice questions and useful exam techniques. All the multiple-choice questions contain answers with detailed explanations and references back to the "Investigators' Manual". The book is designed to reinforce knowledge and understanding of the NIE syllabus. The NIE is a paper based Multiple Choice Question examination testing knowledge of law and procedure relevant to the role of a trainee investigator (in the areas of Property Offences, Assaults, Drugs, Firearms & Defences, Sexual Offences and Evidence). This Q&A book will help to highlight any gaps or weaknesses in that knowledge. Fully updated to include coverage of new legislation such as: the Domestic Violence, Crime & Victims Act 2004, the Criminal Justice Act 2003, and the Sexual Offences Act 2003.
Written by an experienced and highly successful question writer, this text is a valuable learning aid and practice book for both students and trainers.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
Praise for the 2005 edition: I have spoken to officers who had used this book last year for the exam and all without fail stated it was a fine tool, which was easy to use. It was very convenient in size and user-friendly. By using it I have improved my knowledge and that of my team. To sum up this book is a great aid; easy to work with and user-friendly. I am confident that those who were successful this year will recommend the 2006 Edition to their fellow officers. DS Paul Cheadle, Metropolitan Police
