LexisNexis Student Ambassador Programme

Are you up to the challenge?

Introduction

The LexisNexis Student Ambassador Programme endeavours to support law students by training a selected group of ambassadors into LexisNexis legal research experts on campus, from which their peers can confidently obtain answers to legal research queries on LexisNexis platforms.

Our Student Ambassadors will be offered exclusive opportunities to network with practitioners from all sectors of the legal profession through LexisNexis marketing and networking events. Student Ambassadors who are keen to learn more about career prospects outside of the legal profession will also have job shadowing opportunities with LexisNexis staff members from different departments to gain a better understanding of the work carried out in an international legal content provider.

Joining the LexisNexis Student Ambassador Program 2018-19 was a valuable and rewarding experience. Apart from building up my network with law students from different universities, the research skills I mastered through the training sessions enable me to utilize LexisNexis in my studies as well as my internship with law firms. I am well-equipped for my legal career.
