Teaching Negotiation and Teamwork
Each year Northwestern Law's Program on Negotiation and Mediation and the
Kellogg School of Management's Dispute Resolution Center host a conference
on teaching negotiation and team work. Sessions taught by Northwestern
faculty focus on deal making, dispute resolution, negotiation coalitions,
decision making, and teamwork. Instructors share teaching exercises and
techniques with faculty from other schools and focus on explaining
best practices for maximizing students' learning experiences.
Teaching Contract Drafting
Law schools traditionally focus on teaching litigation skills, but students and employers are increasingly emphasizing drafting skills as an equally important part of learning to be effective lawyers. This conference offers valuable tools and lessons to help law schools better train students to be successful business lawyers.
SBOC Faculty Conference and Workshop
Northwestern Law's Small Business Opportunity Center (SBOC), in cooperation with other area law schools, hosts an annual workshop conference for law school faculty and administrators from around the nation to explore cutting edge issues in entrepreneurship education.
