Advocacy Course Information

*Last updated June 7, 2023

The advocacy course provides students with an opportunity to learn the basic principles of written and oral advocacy and to develop their skills as advocates. In doing so, it helps to prepare the many students who represent clients in the volunteer legal clinics. It also exposes students to mooting and to the opportunities in the upper-year mooting program as part of the Law School’s commitment to experiential learning.

Additional information about the advocacy course will be posted in January 2024.

Any students with questions regarding the advocacy course may contact Barbara Wang, Manager, Student Affairs (wang@allard.ubc.ca).
