ICETS: Educating Australia’s leading government investigators

Trusted by 100+ government agencies, we’ve trained 7,500+ investigators over 15 years. Plus, as the team behind Comtrac, we know what it takes to run effective investigations—because we built the tools for it.

The ICETS Vision:

“ICETS is committed to remaining the leading training provider for government investigations.

Our courses go beyond certification. They equip investigators with the confidence, skills, and efficiency that create real world investigation outcomes.”

ICETS: How it all started

ICETS is Australia’s leading training provider for government investigators and compliance professionals.

When we took over the business 16 years ago, it wasn’t just about building a company; it was about raising the standard of training for the government investigators who work to protect the public.

That mission still guides us today.

We believe regulation isn’t just about enforcement — it’s about making sure everyday people are safe, supported, and treated fairly.

Fast certification. Practical skills. Expert training.

ICETS has a unique advantage. Our work isn’t just about ticking boxes. It’s about creating Australia’s top government investigators.

Our 10-day intensive training gets you certified fast while giving real-world skills, the latest tools, and expert-led instruction from those who’ve done the job.

Meet ICETS’ COO, Nadine Seifert

Nadine began her career in criminal law, working as a prosecutor both in Australia and overseas.

But after years in “the system”, she grew frustrated by its limits — the same people cycling through courts, victims left without real closure, and change feeling just out of reach.

That’s what drew her to ICETS. She took the chance to make a difference from the ground up: by educating the public servants responsible for compliance, inspections, and investigations before problems arise.

For Nadine, it’s not just about the law. It’s about prevention, empowerment, and real community impact.

Nadine and Ronni were a fantastic duo and really complimented each other. I really enjoyed the practical activities, working in pairs and teamwork. The classroom was calm and conducive to learning, we were happy to ask for more information if needed. Although quite intensive, the trainers and the other students did a great job of keeping the content interesting and participants engaged.

“This course had me learnt a lot of things from the course materials, assignments and our very knowledgeable and experience facilitator, Gavin. With what I had learnt in this ICETS training, I hope that in the near future I will be a competent leader and investigator. I am so grateful for the opportunity to be enrolled in this program with ICETS. This had been tense, but a training that is worth doing. So on behalf of myself and my family, we would like to thank you.”

I thoroughly enjoyed the course. Great experience Nadine was a fantastic lecturer, and her passion and knowledge of the course content really shone through. I really appreciated her professional and personable style.

Though there was a lot of content to cover in the nine days, the lecturer, Ronni made it very easy and pleasant to follow, it was well communicated and explained, lots of good practical examples, lots of interaction with other students. It exceeded my expectations because of the practical approach, and real case scenarios. I have done other courses with other providers and this one was the best.

Ronnie was one of the best facilitators I’ve had throughout my many education experiences. She clearly has a true passion for helping others understand investigations, was knowledgeable and very approachable.

Excellent, both Nadine and Ronni were very knowledgeable and due to their past employment were able to draw on past experience to provide scenarios and context to course materials. I would say this has probably been the best training I have attended!

The trainers were very engaging and helpful and provided a safe space for asking questions and to speak up if you didn’t understand. Marking of assessments was super quick and the feedback given was very encouraging.
