Description

In accordance with LAA requirements, police station representatives must complete a minimum of 6 hours of CPD dealing with relevant updates on police station practice and procedure each year in order to maintain their accreditation.

Aimed at accredited police station representatives and those currently in the process of completing the Police Station Representatives Accreditation Scheme (PSRAS), this series of 6 1-hour webinars will provide viewers with an overview of some important everyday dilemmas which they are likely to encounter whilst at the police station.

Delivered by barrister, former duty solicitor and experienced lecturer Colin Beaumont, this course is essential for anyone embarking upon advising suspects at the police station and will discuss the following topics in detail:

  • Issues relating to samples
  • The level of disclosure required prior to an interview taking place
  • The position on fingerprints/photographs/footwear impressions
  • Advising on sexual offences at an early stage in the investigation
  • Searches of the person and searches of property
  • The ‘rights’ of the legal adviser at the police station

At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
