[QUOTE="Jaysen, post: 2140, member: 1"] Hi all, This post was recently circulated via our newsletter. I thought I'd share it here and add share some more information about what it involves. [CENTER][B] Our biggest announcement yet [/B] [/CENTER] Since we launched TCLA, I've spent a lot of time thinking about how I could add a lot of value to aspiring lawyers. I wanted it to be something more than just advice on the application process. I wanted some way of truly helping students to secure a training contract. After a lot of brainstorming, gathering feedback and fine-tuning, I think I have the answer. Well, [I]answers[/I].
