Workshops and Training
Evidence-based Communication Training
for Scientists and Technical Professionals
Using scientific evidence in investigations and testimony requires more than technical expertise—it demands clarity, confidence, and the ability to connect with non-scientific audiences under pressure. Our specialized communication workshops are designed for forensic scientists who present their findings in legal settings, helping them communicate accurately, authentically, and effectively.
Rooted in social science research about how people discuss, process and understand new data, our sessions help you develop effective strategies and applicable tools for science communication in multiple contexts. Through hands-on activities and improv-inspired exercises, participants sharpen their ability to simplify complex concepts, respond clearly under cross-examination, and present their work with professionalism and poise.
Communicate like the expert you are.
Most workshops are available virtually or in-person, and we can customize each session to meet the needs of your lab team, professional organization, conference or agency. Each program uses interactive, peer-exercises, and is tailored to the realities of forensic science communication and courtroom dynamics. Our sessions go beyond theory.
Training topics for scientists include:
-
→ Making testimony a conversation
→ Active listening for direct- and cross-examination
→ Moot court revisited
-
→ Designing Reports and Affidavits for your reader
→ Recognizing good jargon and bad jargon
→ Engaging with data & charts
-
→ Being both Accessible and Professional
→ Cognitive bias and human heuristics
→ Presentations you’d actually want to go to
