Continuing Professional Development

Like many organisations, we were able to successfully pivot to enable our CPD programmes to operate efficiently, whilst still promoting excellence in the delivery of our learning events. This is reflected in the move to an increase in our live-streamed events and hybrid conferencing.

Via our learning events, we taught and upskilled legal professionals and engaged with with a range of volunteer presenters. It’s an impressive effort.

Our Cradle to Grave™ conference remains our flagship conference. Unfortunately, we were unable to hold the conference live in Christchurch, but the Auckland conference was live-streamed throughout the country, to great success. Attendees were also able to join us at our other conferences namely the Youth Advocates, Property, and Unit Titles conferences.

We aim to strike a balance between areas of practice, age and stage, black- letter law, legal skills, and developmental skills. Providing coverage on the most popular areas of practice, namely, property, commercial, trusts and wills, family, employment, and criminal law is important, but attention is also given to other practice areas.

This ensures a chance for the whole profession to learn and upskill.
