Georgetown Law Center Advanced E-Discovery Institute Training Academy

As a multibillion dollar industry, electronic discovery has become one of the largest litigation expenses for law firms and companies. Despite its growing significance, lawyers and litigation support professionals frequently find themselves unprepared to successfully handle the myriad issues surrounding the discovery of electronically stored information (ESI). Not only do the attorneys need to have an understanding of the rules and procedures, but so do the company executives, IT personnel and the litigation support professionals who work closely with them on a daily basis.

Georgetown Law is the first law school to provide you with the opportunity to gain the essential knowledge and skills necessary you will need to help lead or participate on your e-discovery team. During this intense one-week session, instruction will be provided by some of this country’s leading e-discovery experts focusing on the nexus between the law and the technology. You will benefit from a rigorous curriculum that includes daily readings, hands-on exercises and proven strategic tips. At the conclusion of this specially crafted training program, you will return to your office with the practical skills and comprehensive knowledge to help guide your client or company through the many e-discovery challenges ahead.
