The essential onboarding experience for professionals new to law school admission.
Who Should Attend
- New JD, LLM, law-related master’s, or legal certificate program admission professionals with fewer than two years of experience in the field
- New admission committee chairs and members
Why Attend?
Law school admission is complex, fast-moving, and increasingly resource constrained. For new professionals, the learning curve is steep: understanding admission standards, evaluating applications, supporting access and belonging, navigating LSAC services, learning institutional best practices, and building a professional network all take time.
The LSAC Newcomers Workshop is designed to accelerate that learning.
Designed by and for law school admission professionals, the LSAC Newcomers Workshop provides essential orientation and onboarding for those new to law school admission. For more than 30 years, LSAC has annually offered this unique training and networking experience to introduce new admission professionals to the services, professional standards, and best practices that will help them succeed.
The LSAC Newcomers Workshop is the only training designed specifically to serve professionals new to law school admission.

The content, the faculty, and the structure of the program were excellent, and I am grateful for the opportunity to meet and connect with newcomers while learning from the faculty. I especially enjoyed the capstone exercises.
