The Judicial Appointments Commission (JAC) works with partner organisations to provide a number of seminars across England and Wales throughout the year.

On the right hand side of this page you will find a presentation for use by teachers and lecturers in schools and colleges. The slides provide a simple guide to the JAC, who we are, our responsibilities and the range of judicial roles we select for. Please feel free to download and use as a classroom or lecture aid.

Alongside this you will also find a PDF to download of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) prepared by the JAC in response to questions and misconceptions often rasied by prospective candidates. We hope you find this of use.
