Keep up or fall behind. The skills you learned 10 years ago aren't today's skills. Hear how to actively pursue the tech skills you need to add to your resume as a modern paralegal professional.  Mentioned in this Episode: "The Trial Presentation Companion," by Shannon Lex Bales Cambodia Tribunal Monitor "White House Executive Office team engages ACEDS to deliver onsite electronic discovery training" Career Essentials in Generative AI by Microsoft and LinkedIn Reveal AI eDiscovery and Investigations
