SUMMARY:AI without the Hype: Prompts\, Workflows\, and Human Judgment
DESCRIPTION:Course Materials: Most live webinars include the ability to ask questions during the webinar about the topic\, view slides of the presentation and have access to a recording of the webinar. \n\n\nDescription: AI will not replace paralegals\, but paralegals who use AI well will replace those who do not. This hands-on session will explore how to turn AI into your reliable junior assistant. We will cover where AI helps (summarizing records\, drafting first passes\, building timelines\, polishing invoice narratives\, comparing documents\, intake triage) and where it should not be trusted without verification. Examine prompt patterns\, output formats\, and a fast quality loop to assist in keeping your work accurate\, ethical\, and defensible. We will also tackle the guardrails: confidentiality\, privilege\, UPL boundaries\, attribution (no AI “ghost work”)\, and documentation for audits. Come away with a one-page AI use policy starter\, a do-not-input list\, a prompt cheat sheet\, and a quality control checklist you can use immediately. \nDisclaimer: NALA recognizes this course as non-substantive CLE. However\, if your state requires technology CLE\, we can adjust this course to reflect technology CLE upon request. Please contact us at elearning@nala.org to request an update for your CLE requirements. \n\n\nCourse Year: 2026

SUMMARY:Self-Leadership: What it is and Why it is Important for You
DESCRIPTION:Course Materials: Most live webinars include the ability to ask questions during the webinar about the topic\, view slides of the presentation and have access to a recording of the webinar. \n\nDescription: We often assume that\, if we are doing a good job\, someone will notice\, promote us\, and help advance our career. This is called Tiara Syndrome. Hope is not a strategy. You need to be the CEO of your professional life and strategically make decisions instead of being at the mercy of factors beyond your control. While it is possible someone will give you a metaphorical tiara\, it is more likely that you will need to self-advocate to succeed. This session will explore how to create and implement a career plan\, speak about your accomplishments authentically\, and deal with inevitable setbacks.\n\nCourse Year: 2026
