Ropes & Gray’s Innovative Career Training Program Shortlisted for The American Lawyer Award

Rankings & Awards
September 3, 2024

Ropes & Gray’s award-winning training and development program has been shortlisted for The American Lawyer Industry Awards’ “Best Professional Development Initiative” award. The award honors firms that create and execute innovative trainings for lawyers and support staff.

In 2023, Ropes & Gray offered 2,247 training programs to its attorneys and support team members. Trainings include “Delegation Poker,” a card game during which participants compare and debate what level of delegation they would use when delegating a task in real life.  The game exemplifies Ropes & Gray’s focus on using cutting-edge adult learning techniques that engage the brain—which helps attorneys and staff develop the skills they need by generating connections and linking new learning to existing knowledge.

This year’s honorees will be recognized at The American Lawyer’s annual gala on Nov. 13 in New York City. A full list of finalists can be found here.
