Alternative Careers in International Arbitration

The event titled 'Alternative Careers in International Arbitration' is a roundtable conversation organized by the Columbia International Arbitration Association (CIAA). It aims to explore various career paths in international arbitration that extend beyond the conventional BigLaw partner-track model. The discussion will feature insights from practitioners who have successfully transitioned into roles such as academics, arbitrators, tribunal secretaries, and professionals within arbitral institutions. Participants will gain practical insights on how to pursue and thrive in these alternative professional trajectories. This event is particularly beneficial for students and young professionals interested in understanding the diverse opportunities available in the field of international arbitration. By highlighting the experiences of established professionals, the event seeks to inspire attendees to consider non-traditional career paths and equip them with the knowledge needed to navigate their own career journeys. A non-pizza lunch will be provided to attendees, fostering a relaxed environment for networking and discussion. Join us on February 5th in JG 102a from 12:10 PM to 1:00 PM for this engaging conversation and take the first step towards exploring your future in international arbitration.
