Overall an informative day about concepts I knew almost nothing about. Knowledgeable speaker who had a lot of real world experience as well. Easy to follow and day flowed really nicely.
Much more knowledge of how the court is managed and the witness role
As a SWA I dont complete capacity assessment however following the course I have gained a vast amount of knowledge which I wasnt previously aware of in terms of when to ask for a capacity test and around executive functioning and what to look for
I would have liked the course to be more specific to medicolegal work ie C+P and what to include in a C and P report. Breach of duty etc.
Structured well - I came away understanding the role of the expert witness in the court process clearly as well as what is important to include and not include in the report writing. I would appreciate spending some time in the afternoon on a practical exercise to draft the skeleton of a report based on a hypothetical brief given to understand what might be relevant, what research might be needed and how the arguments could be presented.
I'm still not necessarily confident upon compiling a report. There will be a lot of trial and error as essentially I will have to manufacture one from scratch as such.
