Collective Campus Launches FutureLaw Academy to Drive Talent Development and Innovation in Legal Services
Innovation educator and consultancy, Collective Campus, has just announced its FutureLaw Academy, a learning & development program for the 21st Century lawyer.
MELBOURNE, Australia, July 7, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Innovation educator and consultancy, Collective Campus, has just announced its FutureLaw Academy, a learning & development program for the 21st Century lawyer.
The way that legal services are delivered is changing thanks to advances in technology and business model innovation. This is resulting in a changing competitive landscape, one that will favour early adopters.
Collective Campus (CC) partnered with Clifford Chance, at the outset of the Clifford Chance Tech Academy in 2018, delivering training across its global offices on a range of topics, from artificial intelligence and blockchain to data privacy and cybersecurity.
CC also developed the Mills Oakley Accelerator - the world's first legaltech accelerator, winning the firm the 2017 ALPMA LexisNexis Thought Leadership Award, and supported Allens Linklater's Auctus Accelerator this year. CC has become synonymous with L&D in the legal sector, having delivered digital skills, design thinking, and customer experience training programs for the likes of Slaughter & May, Harney's, King & Wood Mallesons, Maddocks, Foot Anstey, Mayer Brown, Freehills, Simmons & Simmons, Cornwalls, and Clayton Utz.
According to LexisNexis, 64% of law firm leaders say insufficient technology leverage is a medium-to-high-risk factor for profitability, especially as alternative legal services providers, or ALSPs, continue to take market share.
Emerging technologies are being applied progressive law firms to perform legal research, make data-driven decisions, manage IP, generate and deliver legal documents, compose, review and enforce contracts and help firms better manage their practices, but it is only the beginning.
The FutureLaw Academy offers law firms the following training modules, to help take advantage of these changes, boost competitiveness, acquire and retain top talent, and become a trusted adviser to their clients.
- The Future of the Legal Profession
- Emerging Technology, LegalTech, and the Disruption of Legal Services
- Design Thinking for Lawyers
- Data Analytics for Lawyers
- Business Development for the 21st Century Law Firm
- Productivity, Effectiveness, and Wellbeing for Lawyers
- Customer Experience Optimization for Law Firms
Collective Campus CEO, Steve Glaveski, said that "law firms who stop anchoring to the past, and instead step into today, and take advantage of the myriad of tools and techniques already available, will have a huge advantage over their competitors. Business development, for example, is just one area that lawyers typically don't receive formal training in, and instead rely on dated practices handed down by mentors and senior lawyers, who aren't business development professionals. This is just one of the many areas where we can help lawyers dramatically improve their effectiveness and profitability."
