NePA believes strongly that diversity, equity and inclusion training and initiatives make our workplaces better and are imperative to best represent clients who come from so many varied backgrounds.

 

NePA hosted its first Diversity event in 2019 and over the years has covered tough topics from LGBTQIA+, Race, Gender, etc.

 

This annual event has become one of our most well-attended of the year by paralegals, attorneys, Human Resources professionals and ERG members. The Omaha Bar Association partners with NePA to co-host this event and we intentionally keep it low-cost to remove barriers of receiving this valuable training. You won’t find a better deal in town for 4+ hours of CLE (lunch included)!  We hope to see you at our event on June 2, 2025 at the Scott Conference Center in Omaha.
