Course Description: This advanced eight-hour training seminar will provide you with the most cutting-edge and enjoyable courtroom training to help you perform at your very best. You will learn more about testifying in homicides and other high-profile cases than you ever imagined. No, we are not attorneys. This is a unique training seminar that has been developed especially for you by those who sit in your seat. “Courtroom Success” is for Police Officers, Investigators and other law enforcement professionals who are dedicated and committed to outperforming defense attorneys, hold prosecutors accountable for their responsibilities and simply win court cases.
Your expert instructor will discuss their experiences, share current success stories, and most importantly focus on crucial mistakes. You will learn your individual strong and weak points when testifying, and then discover today’s newest techniques that are guaranteed to help you become the “superstar witness”. Being nervous in court is acceptable; being unprepared is not!

Course Topics Include:
· Self-evaluation: Are you a target in court?
· Understanding today’s courtroom procedures during homicide trials
· Physical considerations that make or break the trial
· Successful verbal and nonverbal behavior when testifying
· Effective case preparation
