Hear from legal experts in this live online course as they discuss some of the current issues faced by in-house legal practitioners, while earning four CPD units. AI and your professional skills – Caryn Sandler, Partner + Chief Knowledge and Innovation Officer, Gilbert + Tobin Artificial Intelligence (particularly Gen AI) has now well and truly arrived in the legal industry and has the potential to shake up the way we practice. This session will serve as your guide to the Gen AI technologies that will likely change the way we find, review and write legal content. Taking a vendor-agnostic approach, we’ll bypass the hype and explain everything you need to know about:
Ethical issues for in-house lawyers – Linden Barnes, Senior Ethics Solicitor, Law Society of NSW In this session Linden will review recent issues in ethics, focusing on:
Changes to Australia’s privacy and data security regime – Amber Cerny, Corporate Law Partner, EY Oceania In this session you will get an update on changes to Australia’s amended privacy and data security laws. We will also cover what the changes mean for you:
The right to disconnect – Carly Stebbing, Partner, Longton Legal This session will explore the implications of Australia's ‘right to disconnect’ reforms both for employers and for employees. The presentation will include an examination of how to ensure compliance while fostering a healthier work environment. Practitioners should inform themselves of Rule 6.1 of the Legal Profession Uniform Continuing Professional Development (Solicitors) Rules 2015 which sets out the requirements for the four (4) mandatory CPD areas for NSW legal practitioners – (a) ethics and professional responsibility; (b) practice management and business skills; (c) professional skills; and (d) substantive law. It is the responsibility of each legal practitioner to self-assess as to whether a particular educational activity extends their knowledge and skills in areas that are relevant to their practice needs or professional development. If so, then the practitioner may claim one (1) "unit” for each hour of attendance, refreshment breaks not included. If you self-assess that this particular educational activity extends your knowledge and skills, this program may allow you to claim four (4) of the mandatory areas: (a) ethics and professional responsibility; (b) practice management and business skills; (c) professional skills; and (d) substantive law. |
