ACC Career Connect: Career Development Workshop for In-house Legal Professionals — US$175

Thinking about your next move—whether that’s an internal promotion, a leap into something new, or navigating a layoff? Register for ACC Career Connect, a three-hour, hands-on workshop designed for in-house legal professionals preparing for a promotion, role change, or career transition. 

Through guided exercises and structured work time, you’ll actively strengthen your professional positioning in three core areas:

  • 🔎 LinkedIn branding & visibility: refine your value proposition, improve profile sections that drive search and recruiter discovery, and apply practical networking and content tactics to increase credibility.

  • 📝 Resume strategy & positioning: translate legal work into business impact, quantify outcomes, and optimize formatting and language for applicant tracking systems (ATS).

  • 🧠 In-house career growth: build a practical approach to leadership development, business partnering, and navigating career stages with intention.

Participants will leave with updated LinkedIn and resume content, clearer messaging, and a personalized set of next steps to apply immediately.

Come ready to engage, reflect, and walk away with actionable tools, fresh perspectives, and meaningful connections you can put to work right away.
