Erika Rosenberg, Ph.D. is a recognized expert in the study of facial
expressions of emotion and has worked with FACS for over 20 years.
She trained extensively with Paul Ekman (senior author of the FACS
system), has published articles and books using FACS, has trained
numerous students in the use of FACS, and has played a key role
in the development and revisions of FACS training materials. Additionally,
Dr. Rosenberg consults with scientists, artists, and the media on
the use of FACS in a variety of contexts including innovative applications
in computer science. She teaches FACS workshops worldwide.
Dr. Rosenberg offers a 5-day intensive training workshop in the
Facial Action
Coding System (FACS), the comprehensive, anatomically-based facial
measurement system developed by Ekman & Friesen. FACS has
been used in a wide range of applied and basic research contexts,
from research on emotion, communication, and psychopathology to
health psychology and forensics.
This workshop takes participants through the entire FACS manual
and prepares them to take the final test for certification as
a FACS coder. Traditionally, people have learned FACS via a minimum
of 100 hours of self-instruction. The workshop offers a dynamic
group setting for learning FACS in about a week, with the benefit
of guidance and feedback from an expert. Previous participants
report that this setting greatly enabled their ability to learn
this rigorous measurement system.
