Program:
Day 1:
- Course 1 – 09:00am to 11:00am
Foundation Principles in Legal Design: Foundation Principles in Legal Design is the first of this 4 part training module for legal professionals to strengthen human skills, re-imagine how legal services can be improved and to learn how to use user-centric design methods to create breakthrough solutions and services that will encourage client engagement and improve business.

- Course 2 – 11:15am to 1:15pm
Contracts your client’s client understands: Using Legal Design to create easy to negotiate and easy to implement contracts: Learning by doing is the best way forward: in this module, we’ll take a real contract, such as an NDA or general terms & conditions and, step-by-step, make it a real business tool, that business people will want to read, while retaining its full legal scope. Applying a user-centric approach, we’ll first clearly identify the (non-lawyer) users of the contract, understand their user journey as regards this contract and learn how a combination of user-centric restructuring, plain language and design can make it much easier to negotiate and fully actionnable.
Day 2:
- Course 3 – 09:00am to 11:00am
Designing Law for the Internet: A user-centric approach to data protection and privacy policies: “User experience ends when legal issues start.” That’s the common perception: privacy policies would have to be those long blocks of text that you just blind sign. This is completely misguided for 2 reasons: (i) the key European data privacy regulation (GDPR) imposes that a valid consent be based on “clear, accessible, intelligible” information, that’s “concise and not too technical” and (ii) your end customers are tired of those inintelligible documents imposed on them.
In this module, you’ll learn how to structure a privacy policy in a way that makes sense for and engages the users, to draft it in an accessible, clear and actionable language – i.e. increasing its legal validity – and we’ll go through real case studies showing how design can become one of the criteria for complying with data protection regulations. (2 hours)
- Course 4 – 11:15am to 1:15pm
Tapping into legal creativity – a necessary skill for future legal professionals: According to the World Economic Forum, creativity will be one of the most important and in-demand skills for organizations and individuals in 2020 and beyond. A creative mindset is increasingly needed to tackle diverse and complex business challenges – in law or otherwise. The need to do ‘ever more with ever less’ requires lawyers, particularly those working in-house, to be more creative and agile in their approach to meet business expectations. In this module, you’ll learn concrete techniques to help you and your team build legal creativity. You’ll also unlock a library of key resources to help you immediately create legal presentations and training that will resonate with your clients and provide a new perspective on what law can be.
