As an experienced expert who started on the journey of providing export reports for the court well before the introduction of expert witness training, I was well aware of the need to validate my knowledge, understanding and practice.
The Inspire MediLaw 2-day course at Oxford, followed by a multiple choice questionnaire and a cross examination at Strathclyde University was the perfect stage for conducting an appraisal of my expert witness skills. I found the Oxford course, provided by a knowledgeable and engaging faculty to be educative, challenging, collegiate and fun. The Strathclyde experience was slightly more nerve wracking but administered with care and consideration.
I have no hesitation to recommend this programme to all who have decided to engage in expert witness work wherever they are on their journey.
I underwent a medicolegal training at Inspire Medilaw to enhance my comprehension of cases in my specialty and embark on a career as an expert witness. Among various courses, I found Inspire Medilaw’s to be the most comprehensive. The organization, led by a professional and highly experienced team, was efficient, focusing solely on relevant topics.
The course provided me with a fresh perspective on medicolegal work, igniting my enthusiasm to start a career as an expert witness. Opting for their certification, I discovered user-friendly modules, excellent support, and practical assessments.
The continuous guidance, whether in cases, report writing, or business advice, was invaluable. Successfully passing the certification exam, I attribute my improved report quality to Inspire
Medilaw’s outstanding support throughout the training and certification process.
A big thank you to yourself and the others involved in this excellent training. I must admit when I got the final agenda for the day it looked a bit scary and I wondered what on earth I
was doing!
Now I can look back on it I realise what an excellent training it has been, setting me up well to continue my medico-legal work. I felt fellow experts express the same enthusiasm for the
work that I have.
I do appreciate everyone’s' time and effort in getting the course and assessment together in such an effective way.
