US$5,500
Your Problem: Missing the legal ops foundation modern legal teams need.
Your legal team is operating without the core capabilities needed in today’s modern legal teams.
Related challenges include:
- Legal teams face growing workloads with no additional headcount
- Legal departments are under pressure to “do more with less”
- Legal operations roles are rising, but skills and training are not keeping pace
- Traditional legal education does not cover legal operations
- Most legal ops knowledge is fragmented across vendors, blogs, and webinars
Is there a structured, comprehensive course that equips legal professionals with the in-demand legal ops skills they need to thrive today?
The GLS Solution: A Legal Operations Certification built for the real world.
In partnership with the Dubai Legal Affairs Department (“DLAD”), the Global Legal Solutions Group (“GLS”) is proud to offer the GLS-DLAD Legal Operations Certification (“Course”).
Structured around ten carefully crafted Modules, the Course provides a solid foundation in legal operations principles, ranging from the basics of resource optimisation through to advanced strategies in leadership and team design.
Each Module combines online video seminars, essential reading, practical coursework, and targeted assessments to ensure a well-rounded, vocational, and practical legal operations learning experience.
The Course has been intentionally designed to prepare participants for real-world challenges. As such, it is light on academic theory and fluff—reflecting the reality that, in legal operations, success comes from the ability to deliver real impact, not expensive ideas.
