  ICCA Conference 2022

  The Shape of the Bar & Building for the Future

This year, The Inns of Court College of Advocacy is delighted to be hosting its third national conference.

The conference will be held in the new education suite at Inner Temple, and we would be delighted if your members could join us. It is aimed at the practising Bar, and is open to all areas of practice. There are a limited number of free tickets for pupils, available on a first come first served basis.

Keynote speeches will be delivered by:

• Tom Little KC, who has prosecuted some of the most high-profile cases in recent times.
• Professor Sir David Spiegelhalter OBE FRS, a forensic statistician who will help us understand and handle this type of information.
• Law Commissioner, Professor Penney Lewis,  who will discuss how we might respond to rape myths.

There are a number of breakout sessions to choose from which will explore trauma-informed lawyering; how we can do more to support women at the Chancery Bar and beyond; working remotely versus the Chambers-model; the growing expectations of pupil supervisory roles; and the limitless possibilities of AI and smart contracts.
