Throughout 2026 we are continuing to deliver a range of free practitioner-focused webinars designed to build knowledge and confidence for investigators, managers and enforcement professionals.
Each session tackles a critical area for investigations; from managing evidence and exhibits, to developing and using intelligence, to building stronger multi-agency collaboration.
Don't miss these opportunities to invest in your professional development - without spending a penny!
The PEACE Model of Investigative Interviewing provides a structured, ethical, and evidence‑based framework for conducting interviews that are fair, lawful, and effective. It moves investigators away from accusation‑led approaches and towards best practice that withstands legal scrutiny.
This free webinar will provide an introduction to the PEACE Model and its practical application across criminal, regulatory, and enforcement investigations.
Fly-tipping and waste crime can have a profound impact on how people feel about the places they live and work. In this insightful session, Charlie Hamilton-Kay (Deputy CEO at ASB Help) will explore the wider social consequences of waste crime, including its links to anti-social behaviour, community confidence, perceptions of safety and quality of life.
Waste crime continues to evolve, becoming increasingly complex and profitable for offenders. In this session, Kev Knight (Senior Team Leader at the Joint Unit for Waste Crime) will provide an insider's perspective on how illegal waste activity operates, emerging trends in waste crime, and the challenges faced by enforcement agencies in disrupting and preventing offending.
Waste crime and fly-tipping can often be linked to wider issues affecting communities, including anti-social behaviour and environmental nuisance. In this informative session, Jo Grimshaw (Partner at G&B ASB Associates) will explore how practitioners can utilise powers available under the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014 and the Crime and Policing Act 2026 to address persistent issues, protect communities and support wider efforts to tackle environmental crime.
Effective partnership working is at the heart of successful waste crime prevention and enforcement. In this session, Liam Mooney (Trading Standards Manager) will share insights into the benefits of collaborative working, information sharing, joint operations and building strong relationships between organisations to tackle complex and cross-border offending. Attendees will gain valuable perspectives on how partnerships can improve outcomes, maximise resources and strengthen enforcement activity.
Compliance is more than a regulatory requirement; it is a vital safeguard against waste crime. In this session we will share industry perspectives on the challenges and opportunities facing legitimate businesses, highlighting the importance of due diligence, record keeping, legal compliance and fostering a culture of accountability throughout the waste management chain.
Understanding the intelligence picture is critical to identifying emerging threats, targeting resources effectively and disrupting those involved in waste crime. This session will explore the value of intelligence sharing, multi-agency working and collaborative approaches to tackling waste crime at both a local and national level.
Waste crime is often driven by financial gain. Whether through avoiding legitimate disposal costs, operating illegally or exploiting regulatory systems, offenders can generate significant profits whilst causing substantial harm to communities and the environment.
In this fascinating session, Ayeisha Kirkham (Head of Public Protection at South Kesteven District Council) will explore how authorities can identify and investigate criminal profit in waste crime cases, the opportunities presented by financial investigations and how following the money can help strengthen enforcement outcomes and disrupt offending.
Waste management issues can have a significant impact on housing communities, affecting neighbourhood appearance, resident satisfaction and perceptions of safety. In this informative session, Kelly Smith (ASB and Tenancy Sustainment Manager at Vivid Homes) will explore the challenges faced by registered social landlords in managing waste-related issues and share practical solutions for engaging tenants, reducing environmental crime and creating cleaner, safer communities.
Encouraging people to change behaviours is often more effective when approached through engagement, communication and understanding rather than enforcement alone. In this engaging session, Kim Logan (Managing Director at ADR Mediation and Training CIC) will explore how conflict resolution and communication skills can be used to positively influence behaviour, encourage compliance and build constructive relationships with residents and service users.
Policies and procedures play a critical role in ensuring criminal investigations are conducted lawfully, consistently, and professionally. However, many organisations are relying on outdated documents, fragmented processes, or procedures that no longer reflect current legislation, case law, and best practice.
Join Consilium Training and Support for this free 45 minute webinar as we explore the importance of robust policies and procedures within criminal investigations and discuss the common issues that can undermine investigations, enforcement action, and prosecutions.
A pocket notebook may seem like a simple piece of equipment, but it remains one of the most important tools available to investigators and enforcement officers. Accurate notebook entries can support investigations, strengthen evidence, refresh memory months or even years later, and withstand scrutiny in court.
Join us as we explore the fundamental rules and best practice principles surrounding pocket notebook use within criminal investigations and enforcement activity.
