The summer development program offered to a number of judges and employees of the Board of Grievances at Case Western Reserve University, USA, has been concluded within the memorandum of understanding (MoU) previously signed between the Board of Grievances and the university.
The program, which was held for four weeks and presented by a group of law professors at the university, included training packages, a set of lectures, daily discussion panels, a debate on legal topics, such as administrative law, its definitions and structures, the nature of administrative law in the United States of America, its powers and the common points between the Saudi and American administrative judiciaries, the mechanisms of the Saudi administrative judiciary and its modern legislation, in addition to discussing international and civil legal issues.
This program is the first of its kind for advanced qualification on the reality of law and the judiciary, its contribution to developing the mechanisms and performance of the administrative judiciary in the Kingdom, and the transfer of best Saudi judicial practices internationally. The program is also the first step of permanent cooperation agreed upon between the Board of Grievances and Case Western University American Reserve according to the MoU signed between the two sides, through which the board aims to benefit from its participatory relations by exchanging scientific experiences with international academic edifices in order to develop the perceptions, capabilities and skills of the judicial and administrative cadres of both sides.
