Frequently Asked Questions

Just like shooting hoops or playing the piano, interviewing is a skill that requires learning and practice. The Practical Application of FETI courses respect this skill building and provide a venue for practice with guidance and feedback. It is analogous to law enforcement going to the shooting range with an instructor. The Practical Application of FETI courses provide a foundation for developing the building blocks (and muscle memory) for modern, trauma-informed interviewing.

Event-based training means that this training course has a live online event tied to it and requires attendees to select the location and date of the course after purchase.

Our training curriculums focus on attaining and enhancing the skill of interviewing and enhancing the proficiency of any skill requires learning (knowledge acquisition) and practice (skill building). Certified FETI offers multiple combinations of learning and practice (online, in-person and hybrid training courses) to best suit attendee needs. Learn more about our training at our training overview.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF PARTICIPATING IN THE PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF FETI COURSE?

  • During the PA FETI course you will have the opportunity to utilize the FETI Methodology in the role of interviewer during five separate, recorded interviews. This allows you to take the information from a FETI learning course for a “test drive” in a training environment that was developed to provide you with opportunities to hear feedback during the classroom sessions from Advanced FETI Instructors about the interview you, and others attending the course, conducted.
  • All of the interviews conducted during this course are recorded to enhance learning. Not only do you have the unique opportunity to review all of your interviews during the independent learning sections of the course, you are also able to watch other attendees interviews allowing you to see the variety of methods, questions and cues used by other professionals who employ the FETI Methodology. Our instructors work with numerous people each year and have routinely found the ability to watch back an interview to be one of the best ways to identify the knowledge, skills and abilities of an interviewer. The Practical Application of FETI course is the only instruction available that provides you with this unique, instructor-facilitated, opportunity. All recordings are only accessible to attendees during the 10-day cohort and are deleted at the end of the instruction.
  • All of your interview participants share real, personal experiences. No role play! Our faculty is made up of professionals who have attended countless interviewing courses over the course of their careers and always were frustrated with the use of scenarios during instruction on interviewing. The PA FETI Course allows you to utilize the FETI Methodology with a participant who is sharing a real experience. Your participant isn’t focused on remembering a fictitious dialogue, allowing the interview session to more accurately reflect how you would utilize the FETI Methodology in your professional role.
  • All of the interview participants during this course are attendees of the cohort. This is allows you an important opportunity to experience being interviewed by someone learning how to use the FETI Methodology five separate times. Too often, people learning how to use an interview methodology are not also provided with opportunities to experience what it feels like to be on the other side of an interview. Not only will this help to increase your awareness of the cues, questions and prompts of the FETI Methodology, you will also be able to experience the importance of genuine empathy.
  • You will leave the PA FETI Course with a great understanding of how to conduct a virtual interview! After many online cohorts we have come to realize the opportunities for learning the FETI Methodology are expanded in a wonderful way in the virtual training environment. Not only are we now able to provide attendees with a way to watch back all of their interviews (something we always wanted to do during our live trainings), but each person leaves the training having multiple opportunities to test out and increase their online interviewing capabilities. Our faculty conducts hundreds of online interviews each year and they share their lessons learned with each PA FETI cohort.

The nature of this instruction requires all attendees to list their real first and last name, job title and upload a photograph of their real person to their Certified FETI account for the duration of the course. No avatars, drawings or other graphic representations are permitted.
