2026 MIE Mini Conference
Supervising Legal Work
Welcome to the registration page for the 2026 Supervising Legal Work Conference! The conference will be held from Thursday, June 11th to Friday, June 12th, 2026, at the offices of Dorsey and Whitney in Minneapolis, MN.
As new supervisors transition from peer to manager, different skills are needed to leverage their team's potential. The Supervising Legal Work Training is designed to help managers with fewer than 3 years of supervisory experience develop those skills through a combination of substantive presentations and facilitated small group discussion.
Topics essential to the success of a new manager will be covered, including employment law basics, individual and team dynamics, feedback and evaluation, time management, workplans, and more! These themes will be discussed alongside real-world challenges attendees are currently facing, with colleagues experiencing similar obstacles and expert trainers from legal aid organizations.
Coffee, snacks, lunch, and refreshments will be provided. The cost of parking and lodging will be covered.
Be sure to register early as space is limited to just 40 participants and spots will be distributed on a first come first serve basis!
