Registrations are now open for the next Clerkship Masterclass to be held on Friday 16 November at the Monash Law Chambers in the City.
The Masterclass has been designed to deliver essential, practical skills relating to research, writing, preparing memos and tips to work effectively during the Clerkship. The sessions are presented by lawyers from top Law Firms, expert staff from the Law Library, academics from the Law Faculty and staff from other legal organisations.
Preference is given to students who have secured a clerkship or equivalent.
Please note that we usually start the Masterclass at approximately 10:00am and conclude by 3.30pm. Note that as this is a practical session, we ask that you bring along a laptop or mobile device, if possible.
A more detailed breakdown of the day will be provided once the program has been finalised. A light lunch is provided.
