I was recommended this course by a colleague who had also taken it a few months ago, and I’m pleased that I decided to register with them. The entire process was simple and straightforward. The content was focused on forensic psychology and did a great job of providing lengthy explanations that were well though out.

The course contained solid information on the subject matter which I found extremely helpful in my role as a psychologist. The modules were in-depth and explored what goes on in a criminal’s mind and their reasoning behind it. The training was intriguing and captured my attention from beginning to end.

The course was factual and contained a wealth of information. It was comprehensive and broadened my understanding of offenders, theories and personal attributes.

I was helped right from the start until I completed the course at Study365. This gave me the confidence to ensure that I learned everything I was supposed to and gain this qualification which I hope to use in a field that is edgy and complex. I love the challenge that comes with forensic psychology.

The course was of great value for someone like me who is fascinated by forensic psychology. It was like being surrounded by a mystery. The course is designed to understand more about psychopaths and their behaviour, and how it is important to remain objective from start to finish I learned so much through this course that I plan to take more courses in this area
