Academy for Legal Inclusiveness Banner

MCCA is proud to announce the creation of the Academy for Leadership and Inclusion. MCCA's Academy is a groundbreaking, interactive training program designed to show you how to define, create, and sustain a diverse and inclusive workplace. As a participant in the Academy, you will learn inclusion principles that can be implemented immediately within your organization.

In partnership with the Center for Legal Inclusiveness (CLI), MCCA will present this four-hour training across the country throughout 2012. The courses, developed by Kathleen Nalty, executive director of CLI, and Dr. Arin Reeves, Nextions, will be offered in 10 cities across the country: Houston; Chicago; Miami; Washington, DC; Los Angeles; New York; Atlanta; Seattle; Minneapolis and Kansas City.

Registration Information

This cutting-edge and intensive program is an exclusive benefit MCCA is offering at no charge to its members and the law firms participating in MCCA’s Firm Affiliate Network (FAN). MCCA members can send an unlimited number of individuals to attend a training in any city where a course is being held, subject to capacity limitations. Member corporations should consider inviting leaders and implementers within the organization, such as the company’s general counsel, senior attorneys, diversity committee chairs and members, diversity managers, and professional development professionals.

FANs registrations for the Academy are limited based on firm size and capacity, so register early. FANs can send the following number of representatives to a course in any city:

  • Fewer than 99 attorneys = 2 firm representatives per city
  • Between 100 – 499 attorneys = 4 firm representatives per city
  • Between 500 – 1000 attorneys = 6 firm representatives per city

FANs should consider inviting other leaders and implementers within the firm, such as the firm’s leadership, practice group leaders, office managing partners, chief diversity officers, diversity committee chairs and members, diversity managers and professional development professionals.

For questions about the Academy for Leadership & Inclusion, please contact Lori Garrett, Vice President and Managing Director, Southeast Region at lorigarrett@mcca.com.
