This unique course is designed for several groups\, including: lawyers in the first two years of practice\, lawyers changing areas of practice\, and experienced lawyers who want a conceptual refresher on key elements within civil litigation. The program will also be of interest to law students and articled students. \nLaunched in 2021 as a Zoom webinar\, this innovative program takes a new approach\, as registrants will experience the entire life cycle of a case by watching counsel present the necessary arguments at various stages of a single fact pattern. \nThe first time through their presentation\, counsel will be making all the mistakes that drive judges crazy. Participants will try to identify all those errors in real time\, then listen as the judges and counsel debrief on what should have been done better. Counsel will then re-present the argument in the most effective manner. \nRegistrants will have an opportunity to test their skills against those of their colleagues\, as prizes will be awarded to those who can identify the most errors. This course will focus on providing registrants with the knowledge base they need to avoid falling into error themselves. \nJoin us for the first in-person edition of this practical and practice-focused program! \nPlease note: the practice-focused course materials will relate to the fact pattern\, the analysis of issues\, and error identification within each stage of the litigation process. Registrants seeking a topic-by-topic review of the elements of civil litigation are directed to CLEBC’s Courses on Demand archive of Civil Litigation Basics 2018 and the associated reference materials. \nLaw Society of BC CPD Hours: 9 hours (this course will contain a minimum of 2 hours pertaining to professional responsibility and ethics\, client care and relations\, and/or practice management) \nCourse Chairs\nThe Honourable Mr. Justice Ward K.

Critical Incident Group Debriefing (CIGD) is a short-term group intervention process that focuses on an immediate event. CIGD is one of several methods that may be utilized to lessen the likelihood of people experiencing symptoms of trauma and stress after a critical incident. This group debriefing process provides a place for participants to talk and share experiences\, and for the facilitator to teach and provide information about the impact of critical incidents. While participants of this webinar will learn about facilitating a group debriefing\, they will also learn how to discern when CIGD is appropriate for a group and when it might not be a suitable intervention.\n\nLearning Objectives\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAt the end of this webinar\, participants should be able to: \n\nDescribe a framework for facilitating a group debriefing\nList the benefits and potential problems with group debriefing\nIdentify when critical incident group debriefing is appropriate\n\n*Please allow only the registered individual(s) to view webinar materials \n\n\n\n\n\nTarget Audience\nThis is an introductory-intermediate level webinar intended for anyone interested in learning more about this topic. \n\n\nTerms & Conditions\nView our cancellation policy and other information regarding your webinar here.
