Board members push for hands‑on training, mock hearings and recorded modules
Summary
Members urged a training program that pairs brief classroom instruction with demonstrations and mock hearings; they recommended recordings to create an onboarding library for future members.
Board members said practical, demonstrative instruction will help new and infrequent members apply legal concepts in real hearings. Members proposed "teach the concept, demonstrate it through a mock trial, and then we regurgitate back" to cement learning, and suggested recorded modules and short video clips as teaching aids.
Chair Ryan and several members recommended using short (15–20 minute) videos and local case studies to illustrate evidentiary pitfalls and decision writing. One member suggested mock hearings as a capstone exercise but recommended delaying those until foundational modules are delivered and recorded. The board agreed to preserve recorded materials for future onboarding and to consider quarterly refresher sessions alongside an annual module list.
