The Collaborative Academy is the Training and Continuing Education portal for the Collaborative Family Law Council of Wisconsin. The Academy was created to help new CFLCW members and practitioners learn from each other and interact with experienced practitioner mentors.
The Collaborative Academy is also the second step in your collaborative training. Five or six times during the year, Collaborative Academy members participate in periodic webinars led by experienced CFLCW members on practice tips and issues that arise in the Collaborative Process. Each topic has been formulated by those who have experience in the collaborative process.
Graduates of Building Blocks are automatically enrolled in the Collaborative Academy. All CFLCW members may attend!
2022 COLLAB ACADEMY SESSIONS
The Collaborative Academy sessions are open to all CFLCW members. They are online (Zoom) sessions held over the noon hour on the days indicated between February and the next session of Building Blocks in August.
