A desire to hone your own performance and that of your team.  Enhanced management, leadership, negotiation or other practical skills.  Access.  A need to increase one’s knowledge about a substantive area of law or policy.  Demonstrable commitment to a firm or organization’s most important resource: its people and their success.  Whatever the reason, we invite you to learn more about Georgetown Law Executive Education.

Custom Programs

One size does not fit all.

Our custom Executive Education programs allow us to work closely with clients to understand their professional development needs.  We create a perfectly tailored experience that delivers the precise tools and training needed.  Our programs are interactive by design, with participants learning creatively and collaboratively in order to better achieve success.  Every detail is carefully managed to the client’s satisfaction and to enhance the skills required for success in today’s constantly evolving legal and business marketplace.

A Blend of Substantive & Skills-Based Training

Georgetown Law offers both substantive programs in legal subject matter areas and skills-based modules focusing on critical areas not traditionally taught in law schools.  Our Executive faculty and professional staff have offered global clients custom programs in diverse substantive areas such as Anti-Corruption & Compliance; Conflicts of Interest Matters for Non-Profit Boards; Global Trade; and the Management of Trusts and Endowments.   We have delivered management and skills-development programs to a range of clients, for attorneys at different stages of their careers.  One program may be designed specifically for young associates, focused on the substance and skills involved in drafting non-disclosure agreements.  Another program may touch on leadership and management issues that are paramount to a firm’s class of newly-minted counsel.  Yet another offering may be designed with senior law firm leaders in mind, focused specifically on refining their strategic planning and high-level leadership skills.

The Law & Leadership Series

All professionals can benefit from executive training in leadership and management.  As such, Georgetown Law Executive Education offers a suite of “Law & Leadership” programs, all of which involve interactive learning styles and can be tailored according to client experience level.  Partnering with clients, we craft bespoke programs focusing on practical skills such as leadership, management, decision-making, team-building and dynamics, communications, strategic planning, emotional intelligence, negotiation, organizational behavior, financial analysis, law firm economics and more.
