AI summary of reviews

Practical mock-court cross-examination is the course’s most valued feature, giving attendees a safe, realistic way to practise giving evidence and managing challenging questions. They describe the trainers as highly knowledgeable, approachable and engaging, using real-world examples and clear explanations to illuminate court procedure, defence and prosecution tactics, and witness expectations. The well-paced, interactive sessions build confidence and provide techniques attendees apply in their roles, though some would welcome more time for practice and feedback.

I really enjoyed the input and enjoyed the cross examination as it gave me an idea of how cross examination would be in the live court. Todays input made me feel at ease about going to court in the future and providing evidence

Very useful training. It provides insight into what is expected of me when I'm required to give evidence and useful tips for preparing for the day.

I was completely destroyed, but I have learned a lot and there is so much to reflect upon. I did not know how to handle when sensitive information would be raised. I would suggest that some of us have no experience in court, and that we do not know how to even answer simple questions, or the majority of court etiquette - this makes the exercise doubly hard.

It is unlikely I will be called to court to give evidence however this course has been very helpful and familiarised me with various procedures related to witness statements and evidence.

I found this skills day to be very useful for my role as I am relatively new to the police force and have not attended court as of yet. So being able to have this knowledge before attending has helped build my confidence for when I am required in court. I feel that as a student, I would of benefited from this day, earlier on in my course.

He was really engaging and made the course interesting. I liked that he didn't use a powerpoint to deliver the course.
