Short Course on Coronial Law 

The Centre for Contemporary Coronial Law at the University of Bolton is pleased to announce that the previously successful short course on Inquest Law & Practice is to be repeated in 2023

This course prepares participants for work connected to or within the coronial service – it covers theoretical and practical knowledge of how the law is applied, including training in the process of coronial law and its practical application to individual scenarios.

Delivered by experienced practitioners, the course has a practical focus that will, amongst other things, prepare participants for appearing in or attending coronial courts and dealing with inquest cases.

All sessions are via MS Teams from 1800 to 2030.  The cost per session is £50 or £300 for the complete series.
