Do you want to seize opportunities presented by the rapidly changing legal landscape? Do you seek practical, effective tools for innovation? Do you want to make change that creates value — and not simply talk about it?

You've come to the right place.

This is not your bar association's CLE. The PoLI Institute offers intensive, focused, and highly-engaging learning experiences designed for legal professionals who have crossed the chasm and seek to lead the legal profession’s journey into an increasingly-complex and ever-more-swiftly changing landscape.

Taking full advantage of the many opportunities presented by a changing legal landscape requires a different skill set than we learned in law school, or even in legal practice. Automation, commoditization, demands for cost-savings and efficiency, a digitally-powered global legal marketplace, the power (and challenge) of leveraging big data, agile and human-centered legal services delivery — you've got all of this (and much, much more) covered, right?

If not, you're not alone.

The PoLI Institute isn’t the first to recognize that today’s legal landscape requires a different skill set than a traditional legal education or professional legal experience affords. We believe this is well-settled, though you can go here and here and here and here to learn more about the ever-evolving state of the legal landscape.

The Institute is the first comprehensive innovation program for practicing legal professionals to come out of a top 20 law school — one that has been offering its Program on Law and Innovation curriculum to JD students since 2015.

The Institute also is a community of and for lifelong learners. Every Immersion cohort will be part of the Institute’s virtual learning community, the PoLI Forum, created to support and facilitate innovation and innovators across the legal landscape. The PoLI Forum provides ongoing content to supplement Immersions and a nexus for sharing with and learning from your fellow travelers on the legal innovation journey.

The Institute’s vision is to be instrumental in the education and professional development of innovation leaders who will transform the legal landscape to better serve all of its stakeholders. In so doing, the Institute seeks to bring along all of those who wish to lead in legal innovation. To this end, the PoLI Institute Fellowship program provides deeply reduced-tuition Immersion experiences to legal professionals who may otherwise lack the resources to attend the Institute. We seek to award up to 2 Fellowships for each Immersion, staring in 2019. For more information about Fellowships, please contact us.
