The 12th Advanced Programme for Chinese Senior Judges is a specialized educational initiative designed to enhance the legal knowledge and judicial skills of senior judges from mainland China. Organized by the City University of Hong Kong (CityU) in collaboration with the National Judges College of the People's Republic of China, this program aims to foster a deeper understanding of Hong Kong's legal system and promote judicial cooperation between the two regions.
The program covers a comprehensive range of topics, including common law principles, Hong Kong's judicial system, and comparative studies between civil and common law traditions. Participants engage in lectures, seminars, and interactive discussions led by esteemed legal scholars and practitioners, providing them with insights into various aspects of Hong Kong's legal framework and its application in a global context.
In addition to academic sessions, the program offers practical experiences such as visits to key legal institutions in Hong Kong, including the Department of Justice, the Legislative Council, and various levels of the judiciary. These visits provide participants with firsthand exposure to the functioning of Hong Kong's legal system. Networking opportunities are also integral to the program, allowing judges to build professional relationships with their counterparts and legal experts in Hong Kong.
This program is tailored for senior judges from mainland China who are seeking to broaden their legal perspectives and enhance their judicial competencies. By participating, judges gain valuable knowledge and experience that contribute to their professional development and support the ongoing legal reforms and modernization efforts within China's judiciary.
