FOR80130 - Forensic Consulting(2 units) The area of forensic psychological consultation is a distinct area practice with goals and functions based on development of specific domains of knowledge and competencies rooted in both multiculturalism and ethical practices. The approaches, knowledge and skills that are needed to meaningfully contribute to different settings where in consultation may be pursued will be explored in this course. The word “Forensic” in title captures the focus on both the risk management and recovery strategies related to liability. Undesirable workplace events create opportunities for multi-disciplinary outside consultation. Organizations are often better served when outside investigators or subject matter experts intervene about concerns as a standard of practice. Some of the domains for forensic consulting include military settings, law enforcement agencies, schools, medical and pediatric settings, and finally, the civil and criminal justice system. Evidence based models of forensic consultation will be emphasized.
