** NEW White & Case Jessup Judge Training Videos **
In an effort to help prepare judges for the Jessup Competition, ILSA's Global Partner and International Rounds Sponsor,
White & Case LLP, has created a series of Jessup Judge Training videos.
These videos review the judging materials, the structure of the oral rounds, and how to evaluate oral pleadings.
Role playing and video clips of actual Jessup oral rounds are included to demonstrate points.
We hope that judges and teams alike will find these training videos a valuable resource when preparing for the Jessup Competition.
** CAUTIONARY NOTE: While there can be no question of the value of the White & Case Jessup Judge Training Videos,
the Canadian National Administrator wants to caution both students and judges that there are a wide variety of judging styles.
Noticeable differences in judging styles exist between American-trained and Canadian-trained Jessup judges in particular.
The Training Videos are merely intended to be samples of suggested judging techniques.
It is only reasonable to expect that actual courtroom interactions between students and judges may differ from those shown in the videos.
