We are continuing to upgrade the e-Discovery Team’s free TAR Course. The latest improvements include the addition of “homework assignments” to the first ten classes. These are challenging and add to the depth of the instruction. The homework includes both supplemental reading suggestions and exercises. We will add homework assignments to the last six classes soon. We also made a few minor revisions and additions to the written materials, but nothing substantial. Periodically we will add some more video content to the TAR Course. We started this weekend by adding a video to the first class:
Here is the list of all sixteen classes in the TAR Course.
- First Class: Introduction
