Case Study: Melbourne Law School prepares students for legal tech careers with Josef

How Melbourne Law School gave students real-life legal innovation skills

Melbourne Law School recognized that students were entering the workforce without the legal technology and design skills demanded by employers. Their challenge was to provide an accessible, extracurricular program to introduce these principles and give students a safe environment to experience real legal tech. They partnered with the vendor Josef to address this gap.

Josef collaborated with the law school and industry partners to develop a four-week Law Tech Pop Up course. Using Josef's no-code interface, 90 students learned to build legal bots, resulting in 11 functional applications. The solution was highly popular and successfully equipped students with practical, real-world skills in legal innovation, bridging the gap between academic theory and modern legal practice.
