Join the Association of Law Teachers Committee

The Association of Law Teachers is seeking expressions of interest from legal academics, professionals and scholars to join our committee. The Association aims to inspire and celebrate excellence in the teaching of law, and to share the understanding and practice of legal learning. To apply, please submit a short (200 words max) statement outlining your interest and experience in legal education and learning to the Secretary, Aislinn O’Connell, at Aislinn.oconnell@rhul.ac.uk by the 30^th November. As part of ongoing work to centre and empower marginalised voices in legal education, the committee particularly encourages applications from legal academics, professionals and scholars who identify as Black and Global Majority, disabled, and/or early career or postgraduate researchers.

Please do forward on to anyone you think might be interested!

Call for 2024 Conference Host

The ALT Committee is seeking expressions of interest from universities wishing to host the Association’s annual conference in 2024. The ALT’s annual conference is the main annual event of the Association, where the vibrant, welcoming, and inclusive community of academics, professionals, and practitioners that the Association represents come together to engage in discourse on all dimensions of legal education.

The conference usually takes place on the Monday and Tuesday prior to Good Friday, and hosts should be mindful of potential clashes with other conferences (notably the SLSA) held around that time. In 2022 we were hosted in hybrid mode by the University of Manchester, and in 2023 by University of Westminster.
