Justice Teaching Institute
Justice Teaching Institute (JTI) - to be held in 2009.
In the Fall of 2007, twenty outstanding North Carolina public high school educators were invited to attend the second Justice Teaching Institute ("JTI"), an intensive 2-1/2 day program that was held the fall of 2007, at the Bar Center in Cary. JTI increases teachers' understanding of the court system and judicial process and give them the tools they need to pass that knowledge on to their students consistent with the North Carolina Standard Course of Study.
Program instructors included some of the state's most eminent legal professionals. Teachers successfully completing the program were installed as JTI Fellows. JTI also offered to other North Carolina public high school teachers an Open Session on one of the days involving presentations by and discussions with various lawyers, judges, court personnel, and policy makers.
