CompuLaw Introduces New Certification Program LOS ANGELES –
January 31, 2011 - CompuLaw LLC,
the publisher of calendar/docket matter management software with built-in
court rules databases, today announced their new CompuLaw Certification
Program™ (CCP), a user certification program designed for firms that are
seeking trained master legal calendaring users as part of their overall
risk management strategy.
The CCP includes a wide variety of courses
designed to train docketing and calendaring professionals on best practices
in court calendaring including “Working with Clients and Events,” “Creating
and Managing Matters,” “CompuLaw Reports” and “Advanced Database Filtering.”
A “Gold” level certification is also available to firms that seek highly
trained users on CompuLaw calendaring and rules applications as well as
back-end database management and CompuLaw Web Portal™. The standard CCP,
ideally suited for everyday CompuLaw users, consists of three consecutive
days of onsite training and testing. The “Gold” level includes five
consecutive days of on-site training and testing. Based on the completion of
a hands-on, practical and written test, all program participants will be
awarded with the “Certified CompuLaw User” designation proving their
proficiency in CompuLaw.
CCP training sessions, carefully designed to
educate on best practices in court calendaring, provide users with the tools
to not only train colleagues on CompuLaw software, but also to increase
quality control when tracking rules updates and deadlines.
“We are seeing a trend with firms incorporating
CompuLaw training certification into their broader risk management plan. The
CCP offers firms a way of further avoiding calendar-related malpractice
risks,” said Jodi Foreman, Training & Implementation Manager, CompuLaw, LLC.
