International Judicial Exchanges

The Judicial Branch Education Academy (JBEA) offers a unique signature initiative, the International Judicial Exchange, designed to foster global collaboration, professional development, and cultural enrichment for judges, court executives, and legal professionals. These curated exchanges bring together participants from the United States and their counterparts abroad for immersive learning experiences that blend comparative law, judicial and court education, and cross-cultural dialogue.

Each exchange is hosted in partnership with judicial institutions, law schools, and national courts in the destination country. Participants engage in substantive educational sessions, roundtables, and site visits that explore topics such as judicial ethics, wellness, experiential teaching methods, and emerging legal technologies. Continuing Judicial Education (CJE) and Continuing Legal Education (CLE) credits are available for eligible sessions, ensuring that participants return home not only inspired but also professionally enriched.

While the itinerary and host institutions vary by country, every program is thoughtfully designed to balance rigorous academic engagement with cultural exploration. Participants may visit historic courts, attend lectures at renowned universities, and meet with officials from ministries of justice or U.S. consulates. Equally important are the opportunities to experience local cuisine, heritage sites, and exchange ideas with colleagues.

These exchanges are intentionally intimate, typically limited to 25 participants to encourage meaningful connections and dialogue. Registration includes educational programming, local transportation, meals, receptions, and entry to cultural and historical venues. Discounted hotel rates are negotiated for each destination, and guests are welcome to join for an additional fee. Whether in Greece, Franch, Italy, or beyond, JBEA’s International Judicial Exchange Program reflects our commitment to excellence, accessibility, and global engagement. By building bridges across borders, we strengthen the judiciary’s shared mission to uphold justice, integrity, and public trust, at home and abroad.
