Judicial Case Management & Ethics [Virtual Learning]

The Commonwealth Magistrates and Judges Association and Civil Service College have come together to organise this programme. This will take a detailed look at the principles and techniques for the development and management of a modern, efficient, fair and transparent system – not only from the court’s perspective but also considering the obligations and responsibilities of others involved in the administration of justice. It includes a comprehensive overview of lessons learned from recent justice system reforms designed to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of judicial administration. It will also cover the scope of application and principles of judicial ethics.
