Introducing the OBA's AI Academy

Welcome to the OBA’s AI Academy, a transformative member-exclusive initiative designed to empower lawyers and law firms with the knowledge, hands-on experience and tools they need to leverage AI effectively, responsibly and confidently in their practices.

Developed by OBA Innovator-in-Residence Colin Lachance as part of the OBA's Real Intelligence on AI initiative, the AI Academy's combined learning environment and training sandbox reveals the ways AI comes into play in the rapidly changing legal landscape and unpacks current AI regulatory obligations while helping lawyers create tools and compliance guidelines customized to their firms' needs.

Members who have experienced the AI Academy during its beta phase have praised the practical benefits and law-based perspective, as they find themselves applying the lessons they've learned in their day-to-day practice almost immediately.

This initiative reflects the OBA's vision of equipping lawyers with innovative tools and resources to tackle evolving legal challenges. By fostering an informed approach to AI, the program seeks to ensure that technology serves as an enhancement rather than a replacement for legal expertise.
