The Annual ITA-ASIL Conference
In 1996, ten years after the creation of the ITA, the Advisory Board announced the formation of an Academic Council (AC) “to serve as a link between ITA and some of the most respected law school professors who teach in the field.”  The ITA attracts well known academics and greatly benefits from the involvement of those who teach and write in the field of arbitration.

The Workshop is presented each June in Dallas and attracts participants from over 34 countries and 14 U.S. states. The program customarily includes several mock arbitration scenes interspersed with expert commentaries, in this manner both explaining and demonstrating the issues addressed.
