Empire Justice Center and the Western New York Law Center (WNYLC) are pleased to announce the new on-demand Substantive Law Training Center as part of the Online Resource Center (ORC). 

In this new area of the ORC, we will provide access to our growing library of previously recorded training.  Current video trainings that are now available to advocates cover topics such as language access rights, Medicare Part D, food stamps, emergency assistance, child support cooperation requirements and an assortment of basic area specific Social Security Disability trainings.  Many thanks to IOLA for underwriting the WNYLC’s webcasting and taping efforts.

For more detailed descriptions and to access these trainings, please visit the Empire Justice Center website at www.empirejustice.org – click into the Online Resource Center where you’ll find a new “Online Training” button on the left-hand menu.  Registration is required to view training videos.  Click on the training video you wish to see, complete the registration form and a link to the training video will be sent to you by email.

We are also excited to announce that the New York State Continuing Legal Education Board has recognized Empire Justice Center as an accredited provider of continuing legal education (CLE) in alternative (non-traditional) course formats including live web streaming, online video and DVD formats.  Continuing Legal Education credits will soon be available for selected training videos on the ORC.  Look for additional video trainings to be added soon!
