The New Jersey School Boards Association (NJSBA), along with Legal One, a partner of the Foundation for Educational Administration (FEA), will hold two programs this month, designed for school board members, school administrators and school attorneys.
“Litigation Education Disputes” will be held on Wednesday, Jan. 20 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the FEA building at 12 Centre Drive in Monroe Township.
School law attorneys, superintendents, and local administrator association leaders must be able to successfully maneuver within various administrative and judicial forums. Participants will gain an understanding of how to prepare a school law case, including proceedings for tenure charges, special education, and other educational matters. This program will include a review of interactions between the board attorney and insurance counsel, rules regarding discovery, court procedures, and appellate issues.
Presenters include Michael Kaelber, NJSBA’s director of legal and labor relations services, and David Nash, Legal One director.
The program fee is $150. Online registration is available here.
