Relativity Academic Partners
Prepare your students for successful careers in e-discovery
Technology is changing how we practice law – and that means law schools and paralegal programs need to change how they teach it.
We created the Relativity Academic Partner program to give students hands-on experience in the legal industry’s leading technology tool before they even graduate.
