Vision

A Competent, Professional Legal Community Serving Somalia

We work toward a Somalia where the legal profession is well-trained, ethically grounded, and equipped to serve justice. Our country is rebuilding after decades of conflict, and the legal profession is rebuilding with it. New laws are being enacted, institutions are being established, and legal professionals need practical training to serve their clients and their country effectively. SICLE exists to provide that training.

Mission

To provide quality continuing legal education for Somalia’s legal professionals through practical, in-person training programs that address the real needs of practitioners working with new legislation and developing legal institutions.

We are not satisfied with just teaching the law. We want to teach you how to use it.

Core Values

Integrity

We uphold honesty, transparency, and ethical conduct in all our operations. The legal profession is built on trust, and we model the standards we teach.

Accessibility

We are committed to making continuing legal education available to all legal professionals across Somalia. Our programs carry no fees because legal education should not be limited by resources.

Practical Excellence

We focus on teaching skills that practitioners can apply immediately. Our courses address real legislation and real challenges facing Somalia’s legal community.

Community

We bring together legal professionals from across all regions and specializations, building connections that strengthen the profession as a whole.

“The law lives not in buildings but in those who refuse to abandon it.”
