These documents are generic to those undertaking learning programmes or who are already in an investigative role subject to assessment against the National Occupational Standards (NOS) of Investigation and Interviewing within PIP Levels 1-3
Update on Portfolios
The portfolios relating to PIP Levels 1-3, produced in 2006, are being updated in line with the revised versions of the National Occupational Standards for Investigation and Interviewing. For those who have already commenced the assessment process with the 2006 portfolios it is recommended that they should continue to use these. The updated portfolios will be published in due course.
