Are you planning to start working as a Forensic Science expert or expand your knowledge in this area? This Forensic Science course will give you a firm commitment to build your professional career and support you in honing your knowledge in this field.

As defined by the legal requirements of admissible evidence and criminal procedure, forensic science, also known as criminalistics, is the application of science to criminal and civil laws, primarily—on the criminal side—during criminal inquiry. DNA analysis, fingerprint analysis, blood stain pattern analysis, firearms examination and ballistics, tool mark analysis, serology, toxicology, hair and fiber analysis, entomology, questioned documents, anthropology, odontology, pathology, epidemiology, footwear and tire tread analysis, drug chemistry, paint and glass analysis, and digital audio, video, and photo analysis are all included in the broad field of forensic science.

This Forensic Science Course will give you a strong foundation to become a self-assured Forensic Science expert and gain more advanced abilities to fill in the gaps for higher efficiency and productivity.During an investigation, forensic scientists gather, preserve, and examine scientific evidence. Some forensic scientists go to the crime scene to gather the evidence firsthand, but others work in laboratories and analyze the evidence that has been given to them by others. Others work as consultants for private companies, academics, or the government and analyze financial, banking, or other numerical data for use in financial crime investigation.

We've painstakingly condensed all the crucial information of the Forensic Science Course and designed it into one continuous tutorial that is intended to train and guide people in the criteria for this role.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
