About this event
Fall PDA Graduation
Guest Speaker:
Mecca Anderson, Esq., Mecca Anderson, LLC, Former Dean of PDA
Launched in 2008, GABWA’s Professional Development Academy (“PDA”) was founded with the vision and purpose to provide intense professional and personal development to GABWA members beginning their careers in the legal profession.
The Academy ultimately increases the level of professionalism among new lawyers and helps them start their careers at a professional advantage. The academy is held twice per year, and each session consists of several classes over a four-week period. The classes are taught by well-recognized leaders in the Atlanta community and cover topics such as Social Media Etiquette, Building Relationships, The Business of Practicing Law, and much more. PDA has won local, regional, and national acclaim, and the model is being replicated throughout Georgia and the nation. The Academy is open to student GABWA members in their third or fourth year (if applicable) of law school in Georgia; GABWA members who are law school graduates and are studying for the bar exam or waiting for bar exam results; and GABWA members who have been practicing law for less than four (4) years.
Since its inception, PDA has graduated more than 500 new lawyers. These graduates have gone on to lead local bar associations, become partners in large law firms, start their own successful law practices, elected and appointed public officials, and much more.
