Prior to the introduction of the SoFMH, there were no bespoke programmes for forensic practitioners, however there are now courses for all disciplines, across all educational levels.
Courses are delivered by leading clinicians or in conjunction with Higher Education providers where professional qualifications are available. Feedback is gathered from participants following every event and a robust quality review process in place to ensure that courses delivered are of the highest standards and meet the needs and requirements of delegates.
Short Professional Courses
The School of Forensic Mental Health (SoFMH) provide an extensive range of skills based short courses including: risk assessment and risk management; legal aspects; clinical assessments, managing personality disorder and psychological interventions.
