LexisNexis Law Student Training
Our training program for law students will continue to emphasize traditional legal research skills and principles, including primary and secondary sources, keyword and Boolean searching, legal citation and noting up. These skills will continue to be taught in “Lexis+ Canada Basics” sessions being offered to all Canadian law students. To prepare for student access, Lexis trainers are available to demonstrate and instruct students on Lexis+ AI through in-person and virtual training sessions under a supervised access model. This AI session will inform students on extractive versus generative AI, FAQs on confidentiality, hallucinations and citation, prompting best practices, and recommended use cases.
Student sessions can be booked by emailing your existing LexisNexis training contact or training@lexisnexis.ca.

Canadian Law School Access Dates
Lexis+ AI will be launched in stages, with law school faculty gaining access in advance of law students. If you are a registered Lexis+™ Canada law school user, look out for an email confirming the access start dates for your school. For the fall 2024 semester, access will be limited to law faculty and staff. For more information on access, contact lawschools@lexisnexis.ca.
Current Lexis+ Canada users will automatically gain access to Lexis+ AI on the access date for their school, and can login using their existing Lexis+ Canada ID.
New Account Registration
New law school users must request and obtain a LexisNexis ID registration link from an authorized person. Authorized persons include Law School Librarians and Faculty, LexisNexis Student Associates, LexisNexis Customer Service, or our LexisNexis Law School Program Manager. All new accounts must be created using a valid law school email address. To prevent unauthorized access to LexisNexis services, note that the law school self-registration page will no longer be accessible through the public LexisNexis website.
