After this online course, participants will be able to rule accurately on issues of hearsay, foundation, privileges and burden of proof, and make correct determinations concerning both expert witness and lay witness observations. Additionally, this course will also address the residuum rule, official/judicial notice, and the use of documentary and substantial evidence. This course relies heavily upon real-world examples and interactive tasks. Participants will have weekly assignments, online group discussions and six live Web conferences with the faculty.
