Job description

Teach lawyers to research and review contracts with AI, and to verify every authority before it reaches a client. You teach in English, remotely, from a ready class kit, and you are paid for each class you teach.

What the work is for

YPAI Learn trains professionals in live classes to use AI in the work they already do. Your classes take lawyers from a legal question to a research note whose cases and statutes they have pulled from primary sources, and from a contract to a redline that follows their playbook.

The work

• Teach the live class "Research a legal question with AI and verify every authority it cites", 90 minutes, from the class kit.
• Teach the live class "Review and redline a contract against your playbook with AI", 90 minutes, from the class kit.
• Show live how AI research can invent cases or misstate a holding, and how to pull each authority from a primary source before it goes into a memo.
• Walk learners through an invented supply contract: ask the AI to flag clauses that depart from a sample playbook, then decide which flags matter and draft the redline.
• Help lawyers who get stuck on confidentiality by showing which material stays out of an AI tool and how the class’s invented matters stand in for client files.

What to expect

• You teach live online classes in English to lawyers from many jurisdictions, and the application asks about any other languages you can teach in.
• The kit for every class includes a minute-by-minute plan, slides, speaker notes, a demo on an invented matter and a backup recording of the demo.
• You teach remotely on your own computer; you need a stable connection, a camera, a microphone and a demo account that holds no client material.
• You pass the instructor test for a class before the first time you teach it.
• Before a teaching assignment starts, you sign an instructor agreement. It covers pay, confidentiality and how class material may be used.
• Each invitation states the class times and the price learners pay, and you see both before you accept.

What you bring

• A research note, clause review or drafting workflow you used AI for in legal practice, shown on an invented matter.
• Experience training trainee lawyers or associates, teaching at a law school or giving continuing legal education talks.
• Patience with lawyers who are skeptical of AI after hearing about invented citations in court filings.

You need

• Hands-on use of AI in your legal work, for research, drafting or contract review.
• Experience as a qualified lawyer, now or in the past, in private practice, in-house or in the public sector.
• Fluent spoken English, the language the classes are taught in.
• 18 years or older.

Good to know

• If your firm or employer must approve outside work under your contract, obtain that approval before accepting an assignment.
• Your teaching volume follows demand for the classes, and every invitation states the time commitment expected.
• It costs nothing to apply, and you need not buy or attend any YPAI Learn course.
