Advocacy Skills Workshop hosted by GAR

26 March 2026 | Pavillon Gabriel, Paris

GAR Academy Live: Advocacy Skills Workshop hosted by GAR

Join us at the first-ever GAR Academy Live: Advocacy Skills Workshop hosted by GAR, held during Paris Arbitration Week at the iconic Pavillon Gabriel. This half-day, hands-on workshop brings together leading international arbitration practitioners for an immersive dive into one of the advocacy’s defining skills: cross-examination.

Across interactive discussions, live scenario work and targeted faculty feedback, you’ll learn how to craft impactful questions, control witnesses and build a cross-examination that stands up under real-world pressure.

What you’ll gain:

  • Practical strategies for effective, persuasive cross‑examination
  • Real‑time experience building and pressure‑testing a cross based on a hearing‑ready scenario
  • Instant faculty feedback to refine your structure, language and impact
  • Multiple networking opportunities with peers and senior practitioners

Step inside a workshop tailored for you. Not just to teach cross-examination, but to let you live it.

What our members say about GAR Academy

Really excellent—very practical and insightful. The range of experiences shared, especially first-hand ones, was unique and valuable. My colleagues and I found it particularly helpful for understanding psychological aspects. It’s also impressive that it’s led by practitioners, not just academics, and the focus on cross-examinations makes it stand out.
