Applying to Be a Judge During COVID-19 - Webcast
Brought to you by CBA-CLE and the Office of Judicial Diversity Outreach
How do you garner support for your judicial application when networking events have been cancelled? What can you expect in a virtual judicial interview?
To continue our conversation about the pathway to the bench and offer ideas for the months ahead, this virtual lunchtime CLE program will explore strategies for applying to be a judge during these unprecedented times.
Featuring short presentations by stakeholders who have undergone the selection process during COVID-19, the program will allow attendees to learn from their experience and ask questions about the process.
Please note that all Home Study products will be available approximately 2 weeks after the date of the live program.
