Not a law school.
A working competence lab.

Lawyers carry a duty of technological competence under ABA Model Rule 1.1. Lawnova Academy teaches that competence the way it’s actually practiced — inside supervised, skills-based labs that run on the same tools your firm uses every day.

Certificates verify completion of a private professional training program. Certain live courses may separately qualify for CLE where explicitly marked.

The Curriculum

Four flagship certificates, stacked into one pathway.

Enter through foundations and civic literacy; advance into drafting, operations, and trial simulation. Each program mirrors a part of the Lawnova stack you already see in practice.
