How to Position the Benefits of CFI to your Organization

The Certified Forensic Interviewer (CFI) certification features rigorous standards, continuing education requirements, and a code of ethics. It’s a step in professionalism for the private/public sector interviewer above the current industry requirements.

The benefit to an organization adopting the CFI certification is it demonstrates the organization is committed to continuing the education of its employees, it subscribes to high interviewing standards, and it shares interviewing integrity with other agencies and businesses.

Upon achieving the certification, the organization gains an interviewer who is professionally proven and is able to mentor other interviewers and improve the performance of the department.

The official objectives of CFI:

  • The objective of this certification program is to create comprehensive, universally accepted professional standards combined with an objective measure of an interviewer’s knowledge of those standards.
  • The ultimate goal is that every person and every organization with a stake in interviewing will benefit from the program, as will the reputation and effectiveness of the entire profession.
