Judicial Careers Seminars

The Judicial Office for Scotland will be holding two judicial career seminars in February 2019, focusing on the upcoming sheriff and summary sheriff recruitment.

If you are wondering whether you have the experience and qualities needed to be a judicial office holder, whether this is the right next step in your career, or whether life on the bench would suit you, these seminars will help you take the next steps.

The seminars, which will take place on February 27 and 28, will dispel myths surrounding the application process and cover the following topics:

• Eligibility to apply for judicial office
• Application Guidance
• Judicial and Personal Qualities for Judicial Office
• The Selection Process

The seminars will include sheriff and summary sheriff guest speakers as well as speakers from the Judicial Appointments Board for Scotland.

Spaces are limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis. If you wish to apply for a space, please do so by emailing: judicialofficeforscotland@scotcourts.gov.uk.

Your email should state your full name, preferred contact email address and which seminar you wish to attend.
