Who We Are

The Global Mock Trial Initiative (GMTI) was founded with the goal of  providing students around the world with legal advocacy and public speaking experience through Mock Trial. 

​

What We Do 

  1. Develop and provide access to mock trial curriculums.

  2. Travel to work directly with hundreds of international 9th-12th grade students

  3. Offer personalized coaching and guidance.

In 2022 GMTI, partnered with the International Mock Trial (IMT). IMT is an organization aimed at increasing access to mock trial tournaments. IMT holds 4 mock trial tournaments per year, all of which are completely free of cost and open to any school across the globe.

​

Since then, GMTI has provided dozens of UCLA Mock Trial competitors to serve as judges for IMT's 4 annual competitions.
