Adults Part-TimeOur new, one day course for adults will help you learn about criminal profiling processes, practice basic analysis techniques and discuss the advantages and limitations of those profiling techniques.
Please note that, for the purposes of this day school, the crime involved contains multiple references to violent crime.
This course will explore the evolution of investigative processes and techniques over time, using top-down and bottom-up techniques to profile three cases. Each critical thinking exercise will incorporate an analysis of the crime scene and associated criminal investigation, discussing the importance and limitations of eyewitness testimony and other significant factors. In order to maximise learning opportunities, the day school will feature complex crimes involving multiple references to substance misuse, extreme violence, and use of weapons. This course assumes no prior knowledge.
The main aim of this course is to introduce criminal profiling and crime scene analysis, with the opportunity to participate in three desktop activities. Using a photoset related to each event, group discussion, analysis, and evaluation will be actively encouraged, whilst recognising that some participants may wish to work alone at times.
The main objective of the course is to encourage critical thinking and group discussion, based upon the perceived advantages and disadvantages of different criminal profiling techniques, comparing, and contrasting those preferred by crime agencies in the United Kingdom, with those preferred by their United Stated of America counterparts.
Key questions around the relative merits of crime scene analysis and criminal profiling in solving crimes swiftly, to prevent any further victimisation, will be considered throughout.
You must be aged 19 or above to study this course.
