Photography

The portrait on this page is a marked placeholder. CDTA supplies faculty photography, and it will replace this before launch. Nothing on this site uses a stock photograph of a stranger in place of a real person.

Teaching at CDTA

Most classes at CDTA are led by two instructors, and every California State Bar tested course is taught in a real courtroom environment. Students argue in a working trial courtroom, an appellate courtroom and a federal courtroom on the Indio campus.
