The Field Placement Workshop is the companion course for students doing field placements with non-profits and government agencies under the supervision of an attorney. The Workshop will meet throughout the semester. This one-unit Workshop does not fulfill the Professional Responsibility Requirement. The Workshop encourages students to deepen their field placement learning by discussing their experiences with other students and covering topics they will face as legal professionals. The first required class meeting will be on Tuesday, August 19, 2025.

All placements must be approved by the Field Placement Director. Applications and more information are available at: https://www.law.berkeley.edu/experiential/field-placement-program/how-to-apply/. Sue Schechter, the Field Placement Director is available to help students identify appropriate placements. To schedule an advising appointment, go to: sschechter.youcanbook.me.
