Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the President of the NBA and the Board of the Institute of Continuing Legal Education (NBA-ICLE), I am happy to announce that the NBA-ICLE has secured a fully funded Oil & Gas and Energy Transition Academy hybrid (in-person and virtual) training for 1,000 lawyers in the South-South zone of Nigeria. 

The training which is funded by the NCDMB will be facilitated by the Energy Law and Policy Faculty of the NBA-ICLE. 

It is scheduled to take place in the 1st quarter of 2024 in Bayelsa State.

We are delighted at this opportunity which is the outcome of several months of interactions and negotiations between the NCDMB and the Board of NBA-ICLE. 

The understanding between the NCDMB and the NBA is that this hybrid training will be the first of many which will cover the six geopolitical zones in Nigeria and that the NCDMB will cover all training expenses including honoraria for facilitators, cost of transportation and accommodation for delegates etc.

Eligibility to attend the training will be on a first come first served application basis.

Requirements for application and the dates for the training will be announced shortly. 

We urge our members to take advantage of this opportunity when further details are provided.

Please note that the above initiative is one of many ongoing conversations aimed at securing fully funded local and international career development opportunities for members of the NBA. 

In the coming months we expect to announce modalities for applying for fully funded local and international work placements and secondment opportunities as well as mentorship opportunities.
