About
We are pleased to be working with our partners at Bond Solon in offering this course.
As part of your clinical practice, practitioners will be required to produce statements or reports that will later be scrutinised. They may be used internally for audit or responding to complaints and externally in tribunals, inquiries, regulatory proceedings or the courts.
All too often, excellent clinical knowledge and skills are undermined when statements or reports fall below an acceptable standard.
