Spring 2009 Workshop - National Institute for Teaching Ethics and Professionalism

Fellowship applications are now open for the first of two 2009 NIFTEP workshops. The Spring 2009 Workshop will take place from Friday, April 24 - Sunday, April 26 at the Red Top Mountain Lodge which is located about 40 miles northwest of Atlanta. Attendance at this highly participatory event is limited to invited speakers and to those selected to be Spring 2009 NIFTEP Fellows. (Prior NIFTEP Fellows are welcome to apply for this workshop.) You must apply on-line from the NIFTEP web site. Fellowships are typically granted either to full-time law professors who teach legal ethics or to practitioners actively involved in ethics CLE education and professionalism programs; however, any person committed to promoting ethics and professionalism may apply. Fellows are reimbursed for their travel expenses; there is no charge for the workshop.  (Applications will open next fall for the second workshop, scheduled for November 6 - 8, 2009.)

NIFTEP will begin reviewing fellowship applications on March 18 so you are encouraged to apply by March 17 for the limited number of fellowships. -jl
