What is "Legally Abroad" about?

Hosted by Kim Gale and Sam Allan, we talk to NCA lawyers, industry experts, and leaders in the community to give you tips on how to navigate the process (and assure you that it really is all going to be okay). Kim founded NCA Network in 2018 and Sam was right there with her when it all began. We’ll chat about networking, how to build your portfolio, transitioning to your career after law school, and more.

AVAILABLE EPISODES
EPISODE 10: "NCA PROCESS WITH DEBORAH WOLFE"
Join us with Deborah Wolfe, Executive Director of the National Committee on Accreditation where she maps out the whole NCA process.
How does the accreditation system work? What subjects do you need to become a lawyer? Are you coming from a non-common law jurisdiction?
We get answers and much more from Deborah to help you truly understand what NCA does and how it is crucial for your legal journey in Canada!
EPISODE 9: "MANAGING UP-A TEAM OF EQUALS"
Join us as we talk with Gina Alexandris and Sandra Bekhor about a refreshing subject that is almost never talked about amongst the legal community i.e ” Management” . It isn’t just a subject of interest for the MBAs but also relevant to us as lawyers when we show up at work as an employer, employee, a subordinate or a co- worker. We have the power to manage those around us to make us an invaluable part of the team and a rockstar lawyer. In this episode, we speak about how you can improve your performance at work and ensure professional growth at your workplace.
