Course DetailsThis course has been extensively revamped and now aims to provide a large part of the scientific knowledge and understanding needed in Fire Investigation within the framework of the new relevant legislation. The course will be delivered by a large team of practitioners and academics, all experts in their particular fields of contribution. Example calculations and scientific analyses and over 100 case-studies will be used by the speakers to demonstrate clearly the application and significance of science principles in fire investigation.
