About the Course
The core challenge facing modern legal departments is the demand for faster results without a corresponding increase in headcount or budget. Organizations want results they can prove in this field, yet many legal professionals struggle to move beyond basic prompting. To succeed, you must demonstrate five domain-specific capabilities: precise prompt engineering for legal drafting, automated risk extraction using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), defensible AI-assisted e-discovery, algorithmic bias auditing, and the creation of robust AI usage policies. This course provides a structured framework for these capabilities, referencing the EDRM (Electronic Discovery Reference Model) and ISO/IEC 42001 standards to ensure your AI adoption is both ethical and technically sound.
You will learn to turn scattered technical knowledge into a structured operational system. Specifically, you will practice hands-on with large language models (LLMs) to summarize complex depositions, use CoCounsel or similar tools for contract lifecycle management, and build custom GPTs for internal knowledge retrieval. This course distinguishes between what you will practice hands-on, such as building a prompt library for litigation strategy, and what you will be introduced to at an overview level, such as the underlying neural network architectures. We acknowledge the real constraints of data privacy, the risk of AI hallucinations, and the complexities of cross-border data transfers under GDPR. This program is designed for professionals who must deliver high-stakes legal outcomes under these exact conditions.
