Course summary
This course is for professionals who work within the disciplines of drugs analysis or toxicology. It aims to allow you to upskill whilst in employment.
The course is relevant to those working in several fields. These include forensic toxicology, forensic drug analysis, clinical settings, workplace drug testing, criminal justice and law enforcement.
The focus will be on professional training developed in line with professional organisations. This will allow you to upskill in areas such as:
- laboratory and research process management
- method validation and accreditation
- scientific communication

You will act as co-creators when it comes to assessment. This ensures that the areas focused on reflect the needs of your employment. The use of portfolios will ensure a breadth of knowledge as well.
