Beth Gramigna to Present as Panelist at AWI Presentation – Developing HR’s Investigation Skills In 2025

While having a dedicated workplace investigation team is ideal, many companies need to rely on their HR team to conduct most of their investigations due to size/resources. In this virtual panel session, we explore best practices on developing HR’s investigation abilities. The panel discussion will cover the following topics:

• How to assess HR’s investigation capabilities
• How to decide who in HR needs development (e.g., benefits specialist vs. HRBP)
• How to apply best adult learner practices to increase investigation skill development
• How to decide on the coaching vs. training ratio
• How to decide if you should build, borrow, or buy a training program
• How to scope, sequence, and scale HR’s development
• How to identify what investigative tools HR needs to be successful
• How to ensure knowledge transfer within the HR team
• How to make the pitch to leadership and measure ROI of the development investment

The panel features a mix of HR/ER leaders, external investigator trainers, and learning & development experts experienced in developing investigators. The AWI Wisconsin circle is made up of mostly HR and ER leaders – hence the interest in this topic.
