The Certificate Online Training Course:

The cornerstone for effective practice as an entry level child forensic interviewer begins with specialized training in the foundational core competencies associated with effective practice. NACCFI presently offers a certificate on-line training course that meets the initial training standards for the Basic Child Forensic Interview (BCFI) Credential. This course introduces the learner to the basic entry level competencies associated with best practices in child forensic interviewing. The empirical evidence used in the construct of this course includes the findings of two separate practice job analysis studies. Other nationally recognized programs offer this specialized training as well. Please use the search engines to locate other training opportunities and conferences near you.
