Book a speaker (Classroom Visits)

Please note that we may be able to find lawyers and other justice professionals to speak with students taking part in online learning due to physical distancing measures. If this is of interest, please indicate in the text box below. Please be sure to include relevant information about the communications platform(s) – e.g. Zoom or Google Meet – so that we can advise prospective volunteers.

 

OJEN’s Courtrooms & Classrooms activities enhance classroom learning by connecting students with the justice system and the professionals who work within it. Observing court in session, participating in mock trial tournaments, and connecting with justice sector professionals in the classroom – all help take law off the pages of the text book and into real life. To book a speaker, simply complete the form below. It generally takes from 3 to 4 weeks to find a volunteer, so please send your request at least one month in advance to ensure we can find the most appropriate person to talk to your class. Please include the exact time of your class and the topic(s) you want to be addressed. Click ‘send now’ to finish, and you will receive a confirmation message in a short time.

If you have any question, please contact Thomas Gallezot (416 761 9963 ext 230 or tgallezot@ojen.ca).
