ITS have been around since the last century, delivering training of the highest quality to public and private sector clients. As one of LAIOG’s approved suppliers, ITS helped many Local Authorities as they moved to a corporate investigation structure. We’re also registered on the UK Registered Learning Provider database, UKPRN:10023218.

We’re often told that we have the knack of making the serious subject of investigation both enjoyable and understandable.  What helps us to do that is the quality of our training staff.

Associate Trainers

Greg Braysford has had a varied career in investigation and housing management, working for a number of Local Authorities in Lancashire and Essex, Surrey and Lancashire Police, to name but a few.  He has over 20 years experience delivering ITS training courses.  Fun Facts – Greg was once mistaken for the lead singer of Kasabian and asked to play an acoustic set in Amoeba Records in San Francisco. These days, however, people are more likely to ask if he is Alan from ‘The Hangover’ films and if they could get a selfie.  History does not record his actions in either circumstance…
