A tip of the hat goes to the law firm of Howrey LLP who announced a new apprenticeship type program for new associates.  More specifically, program aims to train the novice lawyers on the firms’ dime, not the clients’.  That’s great news for client budgets . . . and for the associates who will be more likely to hit the ground running when they are turned loose. 

I give that initiative two thumbs up!
