Testimonials

“What a great resource, wish I'd had it when I started in house!”

Nick Galloway, Regional Counsel, PPG

“This course has been so helpful for my career and knowledge in this space. It has been directly applicable to my work. It provides such a useful insight into Legal Operations, offers practical tips that save time, and the live Q&A sessions are helpful too. If you're a legal professional looking to level up, this course is a must.”

Natassia Fox Papierowski, Legal Operations Manager, Databricks

“It identified and articulated the challenges in house teams face in simple and easy to understand ways. It suggested useful and simple tools to address the issues. I thought it was great and really useful.”

Clementine Smith, GC, Powershop

“I thought the video quality and presentation was excellent and really sophisticated and I also really liked the two-sided perspectives, being both that of the internal business client and the inhouse legal team. This is really well personalised and also very slick in the presentation. I think it will have a lot of take up amongst the inhouse community.”
