Cleveland-Marshall College of Law and Case Western Reserve University School of Law in Cleveland will once again host the intensive summer learning program – the Great Lakes Sports and Entertainment Law Academy (GLSELA) – this summer.
The program, which is open to general, MBA, and JD students, provides an intensive three-week learning experience that goes beyond that of traditional law courses. The term runs from May 16 to June 1.
“As an academy student, you can follow either a sports or entertainment law track and take four or six credit hours as transient credit back to your home institution,” said Ricky Volante (GLSELA ’13), an agent and consultant with Sixth City Sports & Entertainment, LLC. “Classes can be completed in-person, you can complete courses online via live, interactive sessions, or asynchronously through recorded sessions.
“Going beyond classroom lectures, you will experience practical lawyer training through simulation-based exercises that focus on doctrine, drafting and negotiation for professional athletes and entertainers, venues and franchises, while learning from a distinguished faculty made up of Grammy honorees, television and movie studio executives, and upper-level management of professional sports franchises.
“As a student, you will learn more in the three weeks of the academy on topics such as negotations and contracts than in the entire first-year of law school.”
