Assessment Techniques for Court-Ordered Clients

Assessment of court-ordered clients, such as sex offenders and domestic violence offenders differs markedly from assessment of voluntary clients. But how many courses are available to give clinicians and probation officers the skills and tools to more effectively assess these populations? This training will focus on assessment tools and skill development. 

Participants will learn by the conclusion of this training:

·         Learn to conduct assessment interviews of court-ordered clients

·         Become family with available assessment tools and techniques

·         Practice proper format for assessment reports
