Virtual internships

About the virtual internship
Our Virtual Internship, created in partnership with Forage, is a flexible, self-paced programme designed to help you explore life at HSF Kramer, wherever you are.

You'll complete a series of interactive modules that simulate real legal work across key practice areas. It's a great way to build your legal skills, boost your commercial awareness, and gain insight into the kind of work you might take on as a trainee associate.

We recommend setting aside 7 - 9 hours per module to get the most out of the experience.

Our global disputes team work across a range of sectors to provide business-critical advice to our clients. In this module, you’ll develop cutting-edge commercial insight as you learn about the individual steps involved in dispute resolution. By completion, you’ll have put your skills to the test in a mock business development challenge.

You’ll also discover how technology is changing how we work.

By the completion of the course, you’ll have a thorough understanding of this complex area.
