You will find the registration form to book a speaker for your class at the end of this page.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

To ensure that we can match you with a suitable volunteer, please submit your request at least five weeks in advance of your preferred visit date<\/strong>. Your request should include the exact date and time of your class, the topic you wish to be addressed and your preference for an in-person or virtual speaker.<\/p>\n

Please note that due to the ease of circulating requests through our province-wide network and the fact that videoconferences are less time-consuming for lawyers, it is more likely that we will be able to provide a volunteer for an online visit. To indicate your preference, please select the appropriate option in the “Subject matter of the classroom visit” box on the registration form. If you do not specify which type of visit you require, we will assume that you are requesting an in-person visit<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

If you have any question or concern, please contact brieger@ojen.ca.<\/p>\n
