Overview

This training course will enable you both to understand the legal process and to give evidence effectively. Each course is eligible for 6 CPD hours subject to your peer group approval.

Course Content

• Theory: The court from a lawyer’s perspective – the system. The court from a witness’s perspective – the process.

• Practice: Practical case study. The psychiatrist in the witness box – the experience. The debrief – the lessons learned.

This is a prerequisite of attendance. This course includes a practical court case study role-play. Delegates are asked to dress accordingly for a court appearance.
