Gideon’s Promise Summer Session is a three-day training held annually in July. Summer Session gives us an opportunity for Gideon's Promise “Returners” and Alumni to continue to hone their trial skills. Summer Session provides current CORE 101 members who have completed their initial two-week training and are continuing to matriculate through the CORE 101 training (aka “Returners”) with ongoing training and support. Gideon’s Promise alumni who have completed their CORE 101 program are able to attend follow-up training, based on their needs.
