Nordic Business Law Academy by Roschier – Bring your studies to life
Are you interested in a career in business law with an international dimension? Are you hungry to learn from the best in the business? Are you eager to grow your professional network?
Apply to take part in the Nordic Business Law Academy (NBLA), and you will learn how a real-life M&A transaction evolves. The NBLA is a law student program comprising seminars, workshops, practical exercises and networking in a team setting. It offers a unique platform to learn on a practical, hands-on level in a real-world business context and provides you with essential professional insight from top lawyers and client representatives.
Together with our lawyers, your coaches, you will get a rewarding experience and take your skills and knowledge to new levels, gaining a comprehensive overview of the M&A process, a broad understanding of different areas of business law, such as finance, tax and intellectual property, as well as a glimpse of what working as a lawyer at Roschier could be like.
You will work in close-knit teams with fellow students and Roschier lawyers from both Finland and Sweden, tackling tasks that are international by nature. The program also includes a session abroad, in Finland for Swedish students and Sweden for Finnish students.
The NBLA will span over four sessions arranged in spring 2019, starting with a kick-off session in January and ending with signing and closing ceremonies in April. In addition to the case study work, there will be evening programs and social gatherings. The NBLA also includes a customized professional skills training to give you a first-hand experience of how Roschier supports learning.
