Training

Each semester, in-person trainings are hosted for students getting involved in pro bono projects. Recorded training sessions are available for students unable to attend in-person. Online viewing links are posted below.

In conjunction with completing a pro bono training, students must submit a signed Pro Bono Code of Conduct to the Office of Public Service (Eisenberg Suite) and read the accompanying memorandum regarding the professional responsibilities of law students engaged in pro bono work.
