“It was an amazing course and I liked how structured it is. It helped me to understand how to conduct and expert witness meeting and to cope with the pressure during the meeting. The role play and the feedback with was very detailed and specific. The feedback was truly helpful as well.”

“Assisted greatly picking up new knowledge and skills for a type of meeting I have not been involved with before. Theory in the morning combined with colleague discussions and the live role play exercises in the afternoon were a great way to deliver. The live feedback as role play went on was very useful to pinpoint and fine tune how you go about a meeting. The tutor was excellent, very knowledgeable on subject matter, clearly with significant experience in the field and her attention to detail, focus and insight for every single participant in the pm feedback was extremely impressive and useful for everyone.”

“The course provided excellent techniques for setting an agenda and discussing the topics at the joint meeting which is then a valuable tool for preparing for the joint statement. In particular the breakout group sessions where we discussed the strengths and weaknesses of our reports were very helpful. The tutor was very knowledgeable and went at a good speed – she was able to respond very well to any questions asked during the course.”

“Having to do role plays with other colleagues and getting feedback was the most useful part of the course. The course is laid out really well and not at all overwhelming. The tutor was amazing and gave us great feedback which was very helpful.”

“I just hadn’t realised the importance of the expert meeting. The session went very well; the check list to use in preparation of the meeting was extremely useful and something to use and develop. The course was extremely insightful. The tutor was fantastic, covered all topics and answered all questions.”

“The tutor was excellent and the course was insightful and helpful in preparing for meetings. The most useful part of the course were breakout group discussions with the tutor input and the role play feedback after the meetings and revisiting our objectives at the end of the day.”

“The tutor was excellent and the role play was very good practice for expert meetings and was very thought provoking.”

“The training helped enormously. I went from a minimal understanding to being comfortable. The course was excellent with the role play and the feedback and a tutor who explained everything very well and was very encouraging. It was so useful to get regular feedback during the role play and have the detailed information on meetings set into a practical context.”
