National Judicial College of Australia

The National Judicial College of Australia (NJCA) was established in 2002, following agreement in principle by the then Standing Committee of Attorneys-General. The NJCA is responsible for orientation training of new judicial appointees and continuing professional development of existing judicial officers. NJCA activities include education programs, conferences and workshops, the publication of monographs, maintenance of an electronic judicial library and administration of the Commonwealth Sentencing Database. The NJCA is funded by contributions from the Commonwealth, State and Territory Governments.
