The Forensics Human Factors Consultant

Abstract

Over 55 members of the Forensics Professional Group (FPG) completed a survey about their forensics human factors work. The survey included items about experience, degrees and certifications, areas of specialty, and rates, as well as aspects of forensics practice such as advertising and ethics. Part of the survey results provided information about issues that interest and concern FPG members, including continuing education, networking, speaker bureau, fee structures, managing a forensics business, advertising tips, update on trends in forensics human factors, impact of Daubert, professional liability insurance and professional ethics. This panel will summarize the results of the survey, present information about selected issues based upon the panelists' experience, and provide opportunities for members to discuss these issues.
