The Need for Professional Competence For all the attention given to
the forensic sciences in the media and the law, there is a glaring
deficiency in the promotion of standards of competence. In the
midst of fascinating scientific advances in the field, forensic
science still suffers embarrassments from highly publicized
scientific controversies and shoddy or fraudulent practices. The
enactment of the Daubert ruling, which questions the qualification
of a scientific "expert", demonstrates the courts' attempt to
regulate a profession that ought to be self-regulating. Libraries
of books on technique can do nothing to promote forensic science
without common governing standards of practice that ensures
professional competence. Common Ground The first book of its kind,
Ensuring Competent Performance in Forensic Practice: Recovery,
Analysis, Interpretation, and Reporting promotes a common
understanding of competence and demonstrates the application of
standards and practice in all aspects of forensic science. Authors
Fereday and Hadley, esteemed forensic scientists with forty and
fifty years experience respectively, address the method and benefit
of establishing occupational standards for collection of evidence,
interpretation of scientific analysis, and appropriate methods of
testimony. Training and Assessment The authors stress the
standardization of proper training and testing procedures to ensure
that every scientist employed in public and private practice has
the credentials they require. They give clear guidelines for
effective training programs based on occupational standards that
support the development of competent practitioners. The book
examines the importance of workplace assessments of competence
against occupational standards and emphasizes the role and quality
of those involved in the assessment process. The authors include
several case studies demonstrating competence in practice and the
methods to ensure consistent high standards in the future.
