AmCor® Industries Presents:

No wires! No straps! No electricity!

Take our 60-minute, two-step Deception Detection Training Program and become a human lie detector! Increase your “decept-ability” by 22%*

In a world where 91% of people lie regularly at work and at home, it is important to detect deception, even within our closest social networks. In a 10-minute conversation you are likely to be lied to 2-3 times, and the average human lies as often as 50 times a day. Without proper training, we are accurate at detecting lies only 54% of the time. Discerning between lies and the truth can save us time, money, time and can ensure our personal and economic safety.

Try AmCor’s®** Deception Detection Training Program (DDTP) today! Using the specialized Mendacious Coding System (MCS)*** through our patented Interpersonal Suspicion Theory and Visual Taxonomy Technology (VTT).
