NDAA's Trial Advocacy Academy - 101 Series - Direct Examination

Live Webinar: NDAA's Trial Advocacy Academy - 101 Series - Direct Examination

75-minute presentation 

June 5, 2025 

2:00 - 3:15 pm ET

Direct examination is a critical skill for prosecutors. A prosecutor’s ability to listen to a witness’s answers is equally as important as the questions that are asked. A well-organized direct examination will establish the facts of the case, the elements of the crimes, the prosecution’s case theory, and will address unfavorable facts.

Join us on June 5, 2025, for the next session in NDAA’s Trial Advocacy Academy – 101 Series focused on the fundamentals of direct examination. This webinar will help participants learn how to organize and structure questions, handle objections, control and redirect witnesses, and will provide other strategies to enhance courtroom performance.
