About the Canberra clerkship program:
Running for 9 weeks in Summer and 3 weeks in Winter, HWL Ebsworth's Clerkship Program is structured to present you with hands-on experiences and training to develop your legal skills and knowledge whilst offering the chance to network with a range of practitioners throughout the firm. As a valued member of the team, you will be exposed to a broad range of work within your designated Practice Group, and we will have the opportunity to get to know you on both a personal and professional level.
Operational activities may include attending external and/or client meetings, drafting a piece of advice and/or agreement, assisting with due diligence, attending settlements, research tasks and attending Court. Other training areas and practice management workshops may focus on client management, negotiation skills and technical skills, and will be accompanied by career information sessions.
Note: the summer program will have two rotations but due to length, the winter program is in one practice group.
