About Summer Schools
Summers schools are designed to provide an in-depth and comprehensive coverage of areas of legal practice for both lawyers who are newly entering the field or for those requiring a refresher course. The intensive and action-oriented learning format exposes delegates to a broad array of perspectives from senior highly-respected experts that make up the faculty. The programme includes both lecture-style and more interactive sessions, so that participants are able to put their learning into practice immediately.
Firms often send people to summer schools to respond to the needs of a rapidly developing practice within their firm or more generally because they want to familiarise junior staff with the key legislation, case law, and influencing factors of a particular area of law in a consolidated training format. Corporate organisations will also send their internal legal staff to provide them with a comprehensive background in an area of law that will be crucial to their work in the near future. The design of the summer school ensures that participants come back to the office armed with a firm grounding in the fundamental knowledge they will need to actively contribute to the department’s or their company’s legal work.
