Being a victim of crime thrusts a person into a number of legal systems. Students critically examine legal systems from a victim’s perspective, with a special focus on criminal and family law and how they intersect. Relevant legislation, as well as recommendations from inquests and inquiries are examined. Restorative justice and victims’ rights are explored.

I appreciated that the courses were offered online, when I could make them work with my schedule. It was very straightforward to enroll and if I did have a question, it was answered quite quickly.
