New programme to tackle AI disruption, rising early-career attrition in legal profession
A new programme to give junior lawyers a strong start in their careers will be launched this month. Among the skills are practical training, AI tools and a module on self leadership. One of its key aims is to tackle the fact that more lawyers are leaving the profession. A survey last year had said almost two-thirds said they will hang up their robes in five years' time. CNA speaks to the Singapore Academy of Law's CEO Yeong Zee Kin.
