Broaden Your Knowledge of International Practices
Why Enroll in the International eDEx Program
With the increased globalization of commerce, legal practice, and privacy, it has become essential that business and legal professionals understand how to manage electronically stored information (ESI). Discovery and disclosure in legal practice have become e-discovery or e-disclosure because the volume and variety of ESI have increased exponentially at the same time that regulation, rules, and court mandates have expanded.
Internationally, e-disclosure is on the rise for litigation, for regulatory matters, and for internal investigations. There's been an increase in the use of e-discovery processes, software, and services in the European Union, throughout APAC, Latin America, and the UK and Ireland. Many legal, business, and technical professionals understand part, but not all, of the processes involved in the e-discovery lifecycle, and many organizations have new entrants to the field of legal technology who need a foundation to support onboarding when hired.
The International eDEx aims to help international practitioners manage the costs and risks associated with e-discovery, while at the same time keeping them abreast of industry-recognized standards of practice. Legal professionals at all levels, including sales and marketing professionals, need the International eDEx training program to ensure successful outcomes for stakeholders and their clients.
This training, which includes a one-year membership with ACEDS, as well as access to additional BARBRI Professional Education resources, provides an experiential learning opportunity for broadening your knowledge of the e-discovery process.
