    London Career Readiness Workshop – Hybrid Programme

     

    On 12 November 2025, Arbitration Lab is organising the London Career Readiness Workshop in hybrid format to equip its participants with the essential knowledge, practical skills, and mindset required to secure a job in today’s competitive market. 

    Through interactive lectures, skills-based and drafting exercises, mock interviews, and real-world case studies, participants will leave with the tools, drafts, and confidence to take their careers forward.

    This course is designed as a practical add-on to the online Careers in International Arbitration Course, although taking this course is not a prerequisite. The workshop allows direct interaction with established arbitration experts and practitioners.

    It is possible to attend this workshop in person or online (Zoom). It will take place on 11 November 2025 from 10.30am to 6.30pm at the office of Steptoe, 5 Aldermanbury Square, Barbican, London EC2V 7HR and will be followed by a networking reception.

    Completion of the London Career Readiness Workshop gives priority consideration for admission to both the Basel Winter Arbitration School and London Summer Arbitration Schools.
