In A Marriage of Legal Education Companies, BARBRI Acquires SkillBurst Interactive

BARBRI, one of the leading companies in the field of legal education, has acquired SkillBurst Interactive, a company that provides on-demand learning programs for law firms and corporations.

“The integration of SkillBurst Interactive will introduce innovative multilingual, interactive learning solutions that align with the evolving demands of law firms and legal professionals,” BARBRI said in a press release. “This expansion complements BARBRI’s professional education portfolio, which includes certificate courses, specialized training modules and an extensive library of CLE-approved courses and webinars.”

Last year, SkillBurst partnered with a consortium of major law firms to develop on-demand and interactive training programs in generative AI for lawyers, which it then began offering to other firms on a subscription basis.

Also last year, it launched a Legal Innovation Lab to explore how to approach the training and development of new lawyers in an age of generative AI. The lab is led by Anusia Gillespie, Skillburst’s chief strategy and growth officer.

Recently, SkillBurst was named a finalist for an American Legal Technology Award in the education category.

BARBRI is a global provider of technology-enable education courses for the legal profession. In addition to its well-known bar review and LSAT prep courses, it offers professional development courses in a number of areas.

It also provides training and certification for e-discovery professionals through ACEDS, which it acquired in 2015.

“BARBRI offers a seamless continuum of education solutions under one umbrella for the lifecycle of legal learners and their organizations to achieve their goals,” Stephen Fredette, chief executive officer of BARBRI, said in a statement provided by the company. “Integrating SkillBurst Interactive into our professional education portfolio will enable us to deliver engaging professional educational content on a global scale.”

Steve Gluckman, SkillBurst’s CEO, said the acquisition will enable SkillBurst to expand its global reach and offer more extensive legal resources.

“Together, we’re enhancing digital legal training with timely, engaging content, leveraging advanced technology to improve learning outcomes and support our clients in navigating the complexities of the legal landscape,” Gluckman said.
