This site is designed for the self-learner. It is not required training, but we highly recommend that all New Mexico judges and court staff try it. The trainings in the Classroom and in the Interactive Courtroom are not graded, evaluated or recorded on an individual basis; however, they are tracked as a whole to determine areas of learning that need to be developed. Because the Web courses are designed to be moderated by faculty, a student's progress is followed and evaluated for CJE credit when appropriate. (See individual course description for more information.)
The examples we provide are intended to illustrate some common issues that
arise in each area of law. We welcome your suggestions for additional examples.
Please come back as often as you like -- we will be updating and adding topics
and exercises to this site throughout the year!

In JEC's Interactive Courtroom, you will have an opportunity to try criminal
cases in a simulated courtroom situation.
The JEC Classroom has many question-and-answer exercises covering many legal
topics, along with useful resources, available here. Topics include contract
law, ethics, health-related leave, hearsay,
landlord-tenant relations, search warrants, sentencing and torts.
These are instructor-facilitated, Web-based courses that JEC offers
periodically. They are always accessible and may be used as a resource as well.
These are topical lunch-hour videoconferences for magistrate and
municipal court judges and staff on the subjects of DWI and Mediation.
Find out what training is on JEC's website specifically for New Mexico
magistrate judges.
A new Master’s Degree in Justice Management with a concentration in
juvenile justice management, adult justice management or executive court
administration is available from the University of Nevada in cooperation with
the National Judicial College and the National Council of Juvenile and Family
Court Judges.
