Any interesting programs of study for a lawyer?

[jjk9797]

 

 

I'm a practicing lawyer. My employer will support and pay for any diploma, certificate or degree that I aim to atattain. I want to take advantage of the policy and hoping to enroll in a peogram.

Of course, because I'm full time working, I am looking for something that is 100% online. 

Any suggestions? I look in to professional llms offered by York, but they seem to be on campus.

 

Or if there is an interesting course that is not offered by law departments ? My background is administration, insurance and labour.

I was under the impression that Osgoode offered part-time, online, self-paced LLMs. 

EDIT: From Osgoode's part-time LLM brochure:

If I had the same opportunity, I would do an MBA because I have no formal business training and it would be really useful to get a crash course in various business subjects. I'd pick the most reputable online option.

1. MBA: this will open the most doors for your future, especially if what you are doing has a corporate element. It will be expensive though. 
 

2. LLM: if you are considering moving to academia or applying for the judiciary one day, this may be helpful. 
 

3. CSC designation (if you are into securities issues), CIPP (if interested in privacy work), Dispute Resolution Certificate (if you’re a litigator and thinking about taking on mediator work one day)
