Introductory Interdisciplinary Collaborative Practice Training

Join us for an engaging and informative virtual training provided in conjunction with the unique Collaborative Family Law Clinic at Barry University Dwayne O. Andreas School of Law. This Collaborative law-related training will teach you what the Collaborative Law process has to offer clients and the professionals who assist them. This practice-oriented approach to training will provide you with the knowledge and skills needed to provide Collaborative services within your local practice group. This training includes a special section on increasing access to Collaborative processes for diverse clients. This course is intended for lawyers, mental health professionals, financial professionals, mediators, paralegals, real estate/mortgage professionals, and students who would like to work with clients in the Collaborative process. Continuing education credit is available. There will be 16 training hours, inclusive of breaks.
