This is what your school gets with a CALI membership:
CALI Lessons:
Your school's students, faculty, and staff get unlimited, free access to all 800+ CALI lessons. For just $250 a year.
Some suggested lessons: To start, look at our lessons on Bluebook citation, plagiarism, grammar basics (parts one and two), or some other basic concept. We know paralegal instructors who teach ALWD Citation solely based on our lesson, written by Darby Dickerson, the author of the ALWD Manual.
But aren't CALI Lessons for law schools?: We're confident your school will find more than enough material in 800+ lessons to cover the $250 dues - or just the cost of a few textbooks.
As you browse the lessons, you'll come across some you consider too advanced for undergrads. This is, of course, another reason undergrad schools' dues are just $250, while law schools contribute 20x that for the same material. But there is plenty of relevant content at CALI, no matter what part of the law you study. Find out more about CALI Lessons.
CALI Author:
Faculty and staff can use CALI Author - the easy-to-use software we use to create CALI Lessons - to author their own lessons and to edit current ones. Find out more about CALI Author here.
