Learn how and why we lie and proven methods of reading behavior.

Finding truth in a world overwhelmed by misinformation, fake news, and polished online profiles is difficult. In one evening, you will learn methods used to tell the difference between lies and truth.Bending the truth goes far beyond media headlines. In everyday life, missing a hidden deception can have massive consequences. Consider these eye-opening facts:<ul><li>At Work: Over 33% of applications contain fabrications, making deception the leading cause of flawed hires that cost organizations up to $10,000.</li><li>In the Market: Nearly half (48%) of all retail losses stem directly from internal employee dishonesty, forcing many businesses to close their doors for good.</li><li>In Wellness: 45% of patients risk their own health outcomes—and introduce severe malpractice liabilities—by hiding key parts of their medical history and lifestyle habits from their doctors.</li></ul>This introductory workshop provides the basic, validated tools giving you an immediate advantage when evaluating the behavior of others. The class is a streamlined version of the professional and academic program, Deception Management—a research-backed system that decodes the hidden cues in our body language, facial expressions, and interpersonal communications.While formal Deception Management training has been delivered across the corporate sector, healthcare systems, mental health fields, and the criminal justice system for thousands of dollars, this evening is tailored specifically for the general public. It is guaranteed to permanently shift your worldview and transform how you perceive everyday human interactions.Warning: Once you learn to recognize what this class teaches, you cannot unlearn it. About the teacher:<a href="http://www.deceptionmanagement.com" title="http://www.deceptionmanagement.com" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Dr. David A. Camp</a> is a criminologist, retired tenured professor, and former university dean who has spent three decades professionally studying the fascinating science behind how humans communicate and navigate deception. A noted expert in deviant behavior with a PhD in Behavioral Research, Dr. Camp pioneered the academic field of multi-modal deception research in the late 1990s when he introduced "Deception Management", the first ever "for-credit" university course.As no such textbook existed for this topic, Dr. Camp personally researched, located and synthesized the massive amount of verified related research studies in order to meet the comprehensive needs of this new curriculum. This extensive multidisciplinary effort led to the course textbook, Exposing Lies.Today, Dr. Camp masterfully turns those decades of rigorous behavioral science into an interactive, practical toolkit for everyday life. As attendees discover in his workshops, his community-focused teaching style gives you an immediate advantage in reading hidden messages, decoding the true dynamics of those around you, and confidently protecting your personal boundaries. Ultimately, Deception Management is not just about how to spot lies; it is about learning to identify the many disguised and hidden behaviors that reveal so much about us, including when we are being dishonest.For details about our refund and class cancellation policy, visit <a href="https://thechattery.org/about#faqs" title="https://thechattery.org/about#faqs" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">our FAQs</a>.
