About Us

We've Pursued the Same Goal Since the Beginning

Welcome to VereZone where we specialise in training enforcement agencies, central & local government and private sector companies in the specialist and unique skill of Investigative Interviewing.

Our vision is to inspire people to develop confidence using Investigative Interviewing practices while engaging with victims, witnesses and suspects of crime and those reporting any matter requiring investigation.

History

We Have a Long and Successful History

VereZone was born out of a desire to introduce and teach P.E.A.C.E, an extremely reliable model of Investigative Interviewing, now recognised as best practice in many police forces globally, to investigators and interviewing practitioners.

The P.E.A.C.E interviewing model was developed in the early 1990’s and implemented into various police forces throughout the United Kingdom. In the early 2000’s it was reviewed and improved and the model is now proven as extremely robust and reliable.

In contrast to historic interview methods that relied on interviewer and interviewee behaviours in a question/answer format, the P.E.A.C.E model uses a structure that is clear and quantifiable for anyone with even a basic understanding of the model. This means that as an employer you can now objectively understand what a good interview is and invest in the right staff and resourcing to conduct interviews at all levels.
