Nicole Duclos is quoted in this Law360 article regarding the launch of the Covington Academy on International Arbitration with Columbia Law School. According to Duclos, the program will give participants an edge over those who might not otherwise have the opportunity to receive live feedback during the practical training exercises. “[W]e realized that the void in the market is training on practical skills,” says Duclos. “Most people learn advocacy skills once they’re working. … That’s really the benefit. There’s no substitute for experience and that’s really what we’re trying to convey to the students.”
