I started Expert Witness work in 2015 but it is only since attending the modules (I have two more to complete), that I recognise the depth of reporting, the need to clarify scientific terms in layman's language, the need to include a summary page near the front and so on. I have learned so much and actually think this training should be mandatory.
This is the sort of knowledge that will be useful for my professional career and life skills.
Technical issues initially as I had not been provided with the correct link but this was rectified quickly. A good range of training over the 5 days. I feel it would be useful to have a full model report to know the expected level of detail etc
Good third session. I don't think you can ever be 'ready' for expert witness work entirely, there is always a curve ball somewhere. But being able to practice in a safe space ... albeit a very demanding way ... I think it prepares you for many of the scenarios. I liked the 'dress rehearsal' in the morning actually, that was very good. I generally don't do very well on 'first goes', so being able to reflect on some (obvious points on reflection), was helpful. The discussion in pairs was also great as it really pulled into focus the ease in which we all speak in professional jargon without meaning to be exclusive and discuss nuanced issues such as bias.
I feel significantly more prepared going forwards to attend court and face cross examination.
Ren is a great trainer. She made it fun while pulling no punches (seemingly). Great job, thanks very much!
Great day. I have found this series of courses very empowering. They already helped when I had to go to court and was cross-examined. This is excellent for your preparation.
