Alumni weigh-in on how the Modern Law Practice curriculum has helped them on their career journey
Opening Doors
“I found the curriculum very rigorous, but I enjoyed it. Law school is heavy on theory. In contrast, IFLP helps you understand the business aspects of law,
and that’s so important for young lawyers who want to make it in this industry, which is changing rapidly."
Learning key skills that broadened my job options
'Today, I manage platforms and systems that I didn't know existed before my boot camp experience. This program gave me the leg up I needed to be successful in roles I never would have learned about in law school."
A leg up for a 1st generation college grad
“[I] applied to IFLP because the traditional paths and networking weren’t available to us. We were looking for ways to make ourselves more marketable." With IFLP "[t]here was a lot of great knowledge to be gained, all taught by experts. The content was very practical and directed toward accelerating our growth in the profession."
A win for a lifelong in-house learner
"What skills (beyond your legal core toolbox) help you succeed in the legal markets of today and tomorrow? IFLP has compiled the foundations in an easy-to-digest format."
Adding to my legal tool belt
"The legal space is constantly evolving, and this certification from the Institute for the Future of Law Practice is the first step in the right direction of the legal industry. By learning from various areas such as Legal Project Management, Legal Business Design, Data Analytics for Legal Professionals, and Understanding and Working with Legal technologies, I can add what I learned to my tool belt as a legal professional."
