About the SLI
OJEN’s Summer Law Institute (SLI) is our flagship professional development event for secondary school teachers of law and law-related subjects. The SLI is a two-day conference, held in downtown Toronto. The event features experts talking about emerging areas of law and key issues facing the justice system in Ontario. It has become a late-summer staple for many teachers as they prepare to return to the classroom.
Look out for some of your returning favourites! You can also check out the past Law Institute programs or our Webinar Archive to learn more about our previous events.
“Every year I look forward to the OJEN Summer Law Institute and although we weren’t able to physically gather, OJEN went above and beyond to prepare. As usual, the webinars addressed topics in law that are both current and relevant and the speakers shed light on the critical issues. The delivery of the sessions was seamless. The links to the webinars were delivered in a timely fashion and I particularly enjoyed receiving the link to the recording right after. I used the recordings at my first History Department meeting in September and shared the Environmental Law webinar with the Geography Department.” — Lora Gillies, York Region District School Board, about the 2020 Summer Law Institute webinars.
“The Summer Institute was excellent. The topics covered were of real interest to high-school students. I would definitely recommend the Summer Institute to my teacher friends.” — Teacher Law Institute participant.
