The NSW Independent Commission Against Corruption, the NSW Ombudsman and the Institute of Public Administration Australia NSW (IPAA NSW) are teaming up for a symposium offering a range of practitioners the opportunity to increase and share their investigative knowledge, skills and techniques.

Announcing the 13th National Investigations Symposium (NIS), ICAC said the two-day event offered sessions with keynote speakers, and three concurrent streams covering a range of topics.

It said topics included: Workplace and disciplinary investigations; Complaint handling; Forensic accounting and technology; Investigations involving abuse and neglect; Challenging investigations; Psychological welfare of parties to investigations; International perspectives; Public interest disclosures; and Approaches for interviewing children and people experiencing vulnerability.

“The two-day symposium is an opportunity for a range of practitioners – including investigators, internal auditors, lawyers, senior police officers and complaint-handlers – to increase and share their investigative knowledge, skills and techniques,” ICAC said.

“The NIS also offers networking opportunities that allow delegates to foster and establish new contacts and maintain existing ones, and while accessing the latest products and services from the exhibitor stalls,” it said.

“Since it began in 1996, this premium biennial event has attracted the participation of several hundred delegates from across Australia and abroad.”
