Rights and (Responsibilities) of Articling

Keir Vallance, Lawyer, Bainbridge Jodouin Cheecham, will provide an introduction to employment law, human rights law, and Law Society rules as they relate to the relationship between articling students and their principals and employers.

The articling relationship will be covered from the interview process through to the end of articles. The session will include discussion around what prospective employers can (and shouldn’t) ask, clauses to be aware of in employment contracts, harassment in the workplace, and other matters of interest to those entering the profession and job market.  The presentation will also discuss the  Law Society of Saskatchewan's 2019 Articling Program Assessment Research Report and the Law Society of Alberta's new Articling Placement Program.

All 2L and 3L students will receive an email invite for zoom, but you are also welcome to attend the session in Room 150.
