Brief Description

In order to ensure professionalization of the attorneys assigned to violence cases, attorneys take part in continuing educational programs on the subject of violence (domestic, sexual, physical etc.), on the subject of interrogation of sex offenders, protection of the public against sex offenders, feminism, and safeguarding and support of victims throughout the process.

In 2008, special training courses on the subject of domestic violence, and a seminar (consisting of 12 three hour meetings) on the subject of accompaniment and support of victims of sexual violence, were held.
