ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Why WZ for HR/ER Professionals?

Human Resource Professionals face a myriad of challenges every day. Wicklander-Zulawski & Associates offers proven solutions for understanding who is telling the truth and who appears to be deceptive across many applications.

WZ's expert instructors are all Certified Forensic Interviewers who draw from their firsthand experience to provide non-confrontational alternatives to obtain the truth while considering that there is often little to no evidence in these investigations.
