About the Event

As the workforce experiences generational changes, employers struggle to keep and develop legal support staff. The challenge to attract and retain talent is requiring us all to reconsider our tactics. Law firms are now tasked with providing skill development and a path to promotion. Please join Amy Strok, PSALA Chapter President and Director of HR and Liz Miller, Director of Legal Services at Seed IP Law Group, as they share the development of their Legal Assistant and Paralegal training programs. The firm has restructured over the past 2 years to provide four levels of internal promotion. Developed to keep legal staff growing both intellectually and financially, a compilation of core competencies creates a trackable path to move from basic task-based work, to desk management, to training and leadership. They will share the steps the firm took to create the program, the tweaks/improvement made, and the lessons learned.

*** This will be a valuable session and will be recorded. ***
