La formación de los profesionales del Derecho en los Estados Unidos se encuentra en un momento de crisis. Se enfrenta simultáneamente a severas críticas y a la presión de las fuerzas del mercado, por lo que debe cambiar para poder sobrevivir. La educación experiencial ofrece la posibilidad de incrementar la relevancia del aprendizaje de la práctica del Derecho en la formación de los futuros juristas y un gran número de Escuelas de Derecho han puesto ya en marcha nuevos programas formativos en los que los estudiantes aprenden a través de la experiencia. Este artículo proporciona una visión general de la formación jurídica y explica como surgió el enfoque de la educación basada en la experiencia en este sector, concluyendo con la descripción de un programa innovador que integra la práctica en la empresa conjuntamente con la formación de los abogados del mañana.
