ACEDS and Redgrave Education & Training Announce Strategic Alliance for Development of E-Discovery Educational Content

June 1, 2023 – DALLAS, TX – The Association of Certified E-Discovery Specialists (ACEDS), the world’s leading organization for training and certification in e-discovery and part of The BARBRI Global group of legal education companies, and Redgrave Education & Training, part of the Redgrave family of affiliated legal and professional service offerings, today announced a strategic alliance aimed at developing educational programs for the e-discovery community.

Beginning this summer, ACEDS and Redgrave Education will offer short-form education programs through the ACEDS learning management system. Easy to access and affordably priced, the programs will focus on specific topics of interest to legal and e-discovery professionals.

“We are excited to partner with Redgrave Education & Training to bring these programs to the e-discovery community,” said Mike Quartararo, president of ACEDS. “By focusing on short-form learning on specific topics and making these courses easily accessible and affordable, the e-discovery community will have access to top-notch e-discovery education content,” he added.

“We greatly appreciate the opportunity to partner with ACEDS and BARBRI Global to bring additional meaningful education and compliance courses to the market,” said Victoria Redgrave, President and CEO of Redgrave Education and Training, Inc.  Tara Emory, Executive Vice President of Strategy and Development, added: “The combination of our content with the breadth of ACEDS’ initiatives and programs provides a great opportunity to positively impact individuals and organizations of all sizes in terms of e-discovery knowledge and capabilities.”

The programs developed by ACEDS and Redgrave Education are intended for lawyers, paralegals, litigation support and legal operations professionals, or anyone interested in a career in e-discovery. All courses will be asynchronous for independent self-study and no prior experience or knowledge of e-discovery is required. A digital badge will be awarded to those completing the programs.
