June 01, 2026 – The University of Houston Law Center is presenting the International Arbitration Certificate Program, a five-day intensive workshop for legal practitioners, in-house counsel, and advanced law students who want to master international, commercial, and labor arbitration while connecting with leaders in international dispute resolution.

The workshop will be held on June 8-12, 2026, and is approved for 24.75 hours of Texas MCLE credit, including 1 hour in ethics.

“This short but intensive program is a great opportunity to develop existing skills or gain new skills in the important area of international arbitration and build a global network in this dynamic practice area,” said Karen Jones, executive director of Global and Graduate Programs at UHLC.

By participating in lectures, reflective case studies, and interactive workshops, attendees will:

  • Gain practical and academic insight into arbitration strategy and procedure
  • Improve advocacy and drafting skills for cross-border disputes
  • Learn directly from leading experts and practitioners
  • Connect with other professionals

The program will be hosted by the Global and Graduate Programs at UHLC and is made possible in part by the financial support of Seyfarth Shaw LLP, through the efforts of Dr. James Dorough-Lewis and Mr. Jacob Carr.
