In this course, peer review practices will be used to improve the ability of forensic interviewers and multidisciplinary teams to generate corroborating evidence. MDT members will watch several child interviews and discuss what, if anything, the interviewer could have done to collect additional information from the child that could have translated into corroborating evidence. The attendees will also share their own forensic interviews and participate in a peer review of their own work.
