How we teach
What a NAAG program stands for.
Independent of either side
Our pathologists are retained by prosecutors and defense alike. We teach the medicine as it is, not as either side would like it to be.
Taught by practitioners
Faculty are working forensic pathologists, anthropologists and attorneys who carry active caseloads and testify.
Built on rehearsal
Programs rely on real cases, simulation and hands-on sessions, not slides alone.
Small rooms
Seats are limited so that every participant takes part, asks questions and gets feedback.
Training for your office
