The National Criminal Defense College

The National Criminal Defense College profoundly elevates the practice of criminal defense in the United States. Our goal is to consistently pursue meaningful improvement in the quality of individual representation and justice for people accused of crimes. We pursue justice by delivering the highest standard of trial skills training to criminal defense attorneys to ensure that people accused of crimes are represented by client-centered, trial-focused and zealous counsel.

We envision a world in which all individuals who come in contact with the legal system are treated with dignity, respect and fairness regardless of wealth, race, ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, or status in any marginalized community.
