Farewell Symposium Tanja van der Meer

Past present and future skills/Vaardig heden, verleden en toekomst
-

Just a firm understanding of the law isn’t enough for a lawyer; a thorough command of legal skills is a necessity as well. At the same time, training lawyers requires some firm skills as well. On the occasion of the farewell of Tanja van der Meer, legal historian and skills teacher, several faculty skills experts will shine their light on the various skills necessary to a lawyer and a teacher.
