From the market point of view, the organizer should first consider how big the market for this training topic is. Crimes committed by companies and units account for a small proportion in the total number of criminal cases, but generally involve crimes that undermine the order of the socialist market economy, crimes that undermine environmental resources and other crimes with strong professionalism. In practice, many companies can't find suitable defense lawyers in criminal cases. This determines that the criminal defense of corporate crime has the characteristics of "high-end" and "scarcity". From this point of view, the topic of this seminar of Peking University Law School is "unique", but it also determines that the scale of this seminar should not be "large class".
Second, distinguish training objectives and determine training methods.
Modern training can be divided into knowledge training, skill training, attitude training, concept training and psychological training, and there are significant differences in training methods under different training types. The main goal of lawyer's vocational training should be skill training and attitude training, in short, "applying what you have learned". Teaching-oriented training methods can't achieve this goal. A basic experience is that if you know it, you may not do it, and if you know it, you may not do it well.
This is the truth that "what you get on paper is shallow and you never know what to do". The basic method of this seminar is still taught by the teacher, and it is "filled". Now that I think about what I have learned, it is no exaggeration to say that "one ear goes in and the other ear goes out".
Third, identify the main problems and set up courses reasonably.
Lawyer training should focus on solving problems, focusing on solving practical problems of participating lawyers, improving their application ability and making the training more targeted. This requires training teachers to have rich practical experience, be able to have two-way communication with participating lawyers, and avoid blindly following the book. In the curriculum, we should focus on solving some problems in a certain field, rather than being greedy for "big" and seeking "all". For example, this seminar arranged for Professor Chen Xingliang to lecture on the Ninth Amendment to the Criminal Law, and Judge Luo Zhiyong to lecture on the appeal and retrial of criminal cases. This is not to say that the content of these two courses is not important, but it has little to do with the theme of corporate crime. Personally, I think it's a bit wasteful to spend a lot of time and money listening to a book.
Fourth, make clear the students' main body and improve the training effect.
The core concept of modern adult training is "helping others to help themselves". Participants in training are the center of the whole training and the main body of learning, and cannot be the object of indoctrination. Most of the students in this seminar have working experience in criminal law. Changing the simple "knowledge indoctrination" into "participation and interaction" and adopting the method of letting participants enjoy the experience, telling what they know and sharing different experiences to form the collective wisdom of participants will greatly promote the training effect.
