"The Blackstone's Police Investigators' Workbook 2007" is the official accompanying study text for the National Investigator's Exam (NIE) which is taken as part of Phase 1 of the Initial Crime Investigators' Development Programme.

The Workbook takes the trainee investigator through each of the topics relevant to the examination, namely in the areas of Property Offences, Assaults, Drugs, Firearms and Defences, Sexual Offences, Offences Against Children and Evidence. The book also contains useful cross references to the Manual in the answers sections, so students can check their understanding of the content.
