Gideon’s Promise Summer Session is a three-day training held annually in July. Summer Session allows Gideon’s Promise “Returners” and Alumni to continue to hone their trial skills. Summer Session provides current CORE 101 members who have completed their initial two-week training and are continuing to enroll through the CORE 101 training (aka “Returners”) with ongoing training and support. Gideon’s Promise alumni who have completed their CORE 101 program can attend follow-up training, based on their needs.
Summer Session provides small group sessions on relevant topics and all courses are taught by renowned Gideon’s Promise faculty, including alumni and special guest faculty with “niche” expertise.
