The field of forensic interviewing is forever evolving. We have learned much about best practice, new emerging research, and a consensus on forensic interview protocols. There is nothing like sitting in a room with a child who has potentially experienced some form of maltreatmentt and wondering if you are handling the process focusing on the child first, your purpose, and if you can legally defend your process. All interviewers are challenged in many different ways and all children are different. Because of this, there is not one right way to interview all children. It takes a unique blend of ART and SCIENCE to be an effective interviewer.

Advanced Issues in Forensic Interviewing will allow new and experienced the opportunity to learn together from experts in the field. Create an agenda of advanced topics that best meets your training needs on a date and location convenient for your team. This training is designed for forensic interviewers who have successfully completed a basic forensic interview training and are actively conducting forensic interviews.
