Feedback on our online courses
I really enjoyed the modules and found them to be very interactive, taking the same case through from report writing to trial with a simulated meeting of experts and conference with counsel.
The option to get face-to-face feedback on my report was hugely beneficial, along with the ability to 'ask an expert' on other practicalities around becoming a medico-legal expert. I found the speakers very good and their expertise in the field was very evident, making my understanding of the more complex legal bits easier than I had thought it would be!
