The China University of Political Science and Law is now a CALI international affiliate member.

Chicago, IL, October 18, 2007 --(PR.com)-- The Center for Computer-Assisted Legal Instruction (CALI) announced a first by welcoming its latest member: The China University of Political Science and Law, School of American and Comparative Law (www.sacl.net.cn/english/). “This is our first member law school located in China,” says John Mayer, CALI Executive Director.

CALI offers membership to an educational program located outside the U.S. for $250/year through CALI’s International Affiliate Membership. The membership includes unlimited access to CALI’s Library of Lessons for an entire educational program’s students, faculty, and staff. The Library of CALI Lessons is a collection of over 675 computer-based, interactive materials on 33 different legal subjects found at cali.org/lessons. “CALI membership is perfect for international schools that wish to supplement teaching of American or comparative law,” says Mayer. “CALI lessons are written and edited by American law professors or librarians, and all 675-plus lessons are available online at our website. It’s a tremendous value for international schools at $250 a year.”
