Pacific Business & Law Institute offers over 40 courses, conferences and forums in locations across Canada. We are a close-knit team of lawyers and professionals based in Vancouver who have been committed to researching pressing issues, trends and legal and social policy developments for over 20 years. Approximately half of our events are focused on significant issues impacting Aboriginal people.
Every conference offered by PBLI qualifies for a minimum of 5 hours of professional development with the Law Societies of BC and Upper Canada towards lawyers' mandatory reporting requirement of 12 professional development hours.
Since early 1990, PBLI has been bringing together First Nations, government, academic, professional and industry leaders to participate in interactive educational events of unsurpassed quality, unique for their multi-disciplined nature, variety of perspectives and the resultant cross-pollination of ideas.
I have attended PBLI courses in many capacities: as a delegate, a speaker and as the chair: I have always been able to count on the courses providing real and immediate benefit in my practice.
