- Text size
Plan to focus on improving judicial & legal transparency & innovation, creating databases and booklets; and developing training programs based on international standards
Dubai Judicial Institute (DJI), a leading centre of law studies and judicial training in Dubai, held today (Wednesday, March 10, 2010) a press conference to launch its training plan and initiatives for 2010 which focus on optimizing judicial practices and enhancing the Institute's reputation as a regional center for legal and judicial excellence.
The conference is part of DJI's strategy of raising more social awareness on general legal and judicial affairs and their significant role in achieving sustainable development. The 2010 agenda aims to accelerate the development of training and consultancy services in accordance with global trends in order to firmly establish transparency, promote excellence and innovation within the judicial and legal body, and reinforce the image of Dubai and the UAE in general as a leading international hub for various fields.
DJI Director General Dr. Jamal AlSumaiti reviewed the key points of DJI's training plan for 2010 and discussed important initiatives and projects embodied by 118 upcoming events beside the training programs. These include a series of training courses; programs for operational efficiency; forums; workshops to be conducted at courts; specialized courses; administrative programs; the conference to mark the silver jubilee of UAE's Civil Transactions Act; and social awareness programs which tackle crucial issues such as Intellectual Property, child custody rights, citizenship, ethics and other topics. Dr. AlSumaiti also shed some light on DJI's training philosophy and the comprehensive approach and methodology the Institute uses to develop programs reflecting the highest international standards.
DJI also highlighted its most significant and prominent strategic agreements and partnerships with a number of academic institutions specializing in the development and training of qualified staff for legal and judicial work. The Institute explained that these will help ingrain excellence in training initiatives for expert UAE nationals and provide individuals involved in legal work with leading vocational training programs, while providing DJI with up-to-date information and expertise that can further enhance its operations.
"We are very eager to reveal our training plan, initiatives and development programs for this year, mainly because we are fully committed to Dubai's Strategic Plan 2015 and its focus on security, justice and safety. We intend to develop specialized programs that can enhance the potentials of the legal and judicial workforce and broaden awareness on the importance of law in building an integrated knowledge-based society. We will also pursue the development of a solid network of local, regional and international partnerships in order to exchange information, experience and practices; develop resources such as databases and booklets; and support research and studies that can assist those involved in the legal and judicial system," said Dr. AlSumaiti.
"Among the initiatives we intend to implement are the 'Knowledge Management,' the 'Leader Experience Knowledge', 'Judicial Officiary' and 'Law Forum' Projects, the event to mark the silver jubilee of the UAE's Civil Transactions Act, and many other initiatives that were recently discussed at the sixth meeting of DJI's Board of Directors," he added.
"DJI's vision is to create high-standard training programs that can teach human resources how to face all kinds of challenges, realize institutional goals and objectives, and fulfill the increasing demands and requirements brought about by international developments. We will thus continue to work with our strategic partners and associates to achieve more accomplishments similar to those we have realized over the past two years, particularly regarding the number of people we have been able to train. We trained 673 individuals in 2008, and then went on to double this figure to 1,284 by 2009. This reflects our strong commitment to enhancing DJI's role in promoting scientific research and constantly developing world-class training programs," concluded Dr. AlSumaiti.
The Dubai Judicial Institute was established in 1996 to help educate and train aspiring judges, prosecutors and their assistants, legal experts and lawyers. DJI also offers rehabilitation programs for public prosecutors to enhance their efficiency. The Institute also provides training and consultancy services to various agencies and institutions - both private and public - and conducts research and studies in all areas of law and jurisdiction, locally, regionally and globally.
