Northwestern University School of Law recently undertook a comprehensive analysis of what capabilities today's law students will need to excel in their careers. The school, with the assistance of a consulting firm, gathered extensive research on legal education and legal profession trends; received input from faculty, alumni and students; and talked to the lawyers affecting the trends. The outcome is a major new plan to screen for and develop the core competencies that are at the heart of our analysis.
