The Oregon Supreme Court has unanimously supported recommendations from the state Board of Bar Examiners for two alternative pathways to licensure for attorneys in lieu of the Uniform Bar Exam:
- An experiential learning pathway where students would spend their last two years of law school focused on experiential courses and developing a portfolio of real-world work samples for the Board of Bar Examiners to review and assess in lieu of a bar exam.
- A postgraduate supervised legal practice pathway where graduates would work under a supervising attorney and generate a portfolio of real-world work samples for the Board of Bar Examiners to review and assess in lieu of a bar exam.
Hear from the chair of the task force about the alternative pathways, considerations that went into the recommendations, and how the concepts might apply to other professions considering alternatives to an exam.

Joanna Perini-Abbott, Chair, Alternatives to the Exam task force
