Frequently Asked Questions About Forensic Training

  • Can training be based on our case types?

    Yes. The most useful programs are tailored to the agency's or firm's needs, legal issues, and evidence encountered.

  • Can you train a mixed group of attorneys and investigators?

    Yes, but our agenda will identify shared topics and role-specific breakouts so each group receives practical instruction.

  • Do participants need technical experience?

    Not for introductory legal and investigator programs. Advanced practitioner training may require defined prerequisites.

  • Can the session use active case evidence?

    Potentially, subject to authorization, confidentiality, privilege, protective orders, and a clearly defined instructional purpose. Representative or anonymized examples may be more appropriate.
