Now more than ever, PD professionals need to stay on top of current trends and best practices, as well as understand and advance their firm priorities.  The Professional Development Institute 2011 will equip you to help your organization and your lawyers succeed in today's challenging environment.  Through intensive educational programing and formal and informal networking opportunities, this annual two-day program sponsored by NALP and ALI-ABA provides comprehensive, timely, cutting-edge information for all involved in lawyer training and professional development.

Attendees will:

  • Explore successful practices with experts and leaders in the field of professional development;
  • Participate in interactive sessions;
  • Share creative ideas to strengthen and advance their careers in professional development;
  • Receive a binder of resource materials for the entire conference, including samples, checklists, biographies, and more;
  • Build invaluable connections with colleagues, including a roundtable4 discussion session for law school members.

Training for you means greater professional development opportunities for your lawyers and law students.  The Professional Development Institute 2011 is a program you can't afford to miss if:

  • You are responsible for any aspect of lawyer or law student training and professional development, regardless of your level of experience and regardless of whether lawyer professional development is a full-time or part-time role for you;
  • You want to increase your knowledge and skills in lawyer training and development, learn what others are successfully doing in this area, and markedly improve your organization's professional development programs.
