Distinguish Yourself: Know Your Productivity Applications
Learning to use productivity applications commonly used in law offices is a valuable skill. The Marx Law Library has subscribed to the Procertas Legal Tech Assessment, a tool that offers tutorials for Microsoft Word and Excel, and for Adobe Acrobat. We are making the LTA available to all law students this semester. Please join us for a kickoff session on Wednesday, January 24th, at 12:15 P.M. in Room 118. We’ll hear from Procertas founder D. Casey Flaherty, best known for his writings on the need for attorneys to incorporate technology into their practice, and to offer more value to their clients. Pizza will be provided, but advance registration is required.
