How to Learn Handwriting Analysis

Handwriting analysis is used to identify personality traits. It can be used by businesses for hiring profiles or by therapists to help focus treatment for a patient. Handwriting analysis is often learned through correspondence courses or is self-taught. Most correspondence courses take about 18 months to complete. Most provide some sort of certification. Many courses offer different levels that certify students to perform different handwriting analysis tasks.
