Thomas
Jefferson’s School Of Law Diamond LL.M.
program and AAFM are partnering up to provide
you with a new course starting July 2008. It
is offered online with live streaming video.
All courses are recorded for later playback.
The
instructor, Alfred Ongcapin, is an Adjudications
officer for the US Department of Homeland Security,
and comes with increased tenure and experience.
This
riveting course is an introductory look into
the often complex realm of international tax,
estate planning, and immigration law. Mr. Ongcapin
will bridge the gap between foundational principles
of U.S. international tax and estate planning
including immigration visa categories, requirements,
and triggers along with their consequences.
An examination through AAFM is available after
the course to become certified in International
Estate Planning and Immigration Law.

a Degree or a Certificate Online
Initially created to culminate in an LL.M. in
international tax, the Diamond Program has grown
to meet the wide range of career objectives
and needs represented by the individuals who
seek the flexibility that only this online program
can offer. Today, aside from working toward
an LL.M., a student can earn either a J.S.M.
(Master of Science of Laws) or a J.S.D. (Juris
Scientiae Doctor). In addition, students who
do not seek a traditional law degree can pursue
a course of study that culminates in a certificate
in one of six areas of specialization.
Global
Jobs and Career Database up and running
LLM. JSD students and alumni (now 500+ and growing)
have access to the jobs and career database,
plus the weekly receipt of job opportunity emails
from companies, firms, and executive search
firms.
In the past 12 months, over 300 specific professional
and academic opportunities were made available
to our students and alumni via our database
and email system. The search engines in the
database allowed searching of thousands of published
opportunities.

New Chinese Tax Law Courses being offered.
In celebration of China's entry into the WTO
as a full partner, the Diamond Program is highlighting
our unique and exceptionally in-depth Chinese
law course. This is a special class in association
with English speaking law faculty members at
the University of Peking and is not taught every
year.
This
course is highly successful for business people
working with China, those interested in developing
manufacturing in Asia, and general students
of world trade. This course was designed and
is instructed by a leading professor in a top-tier
Chinese law school. Investment law, tax law
and other topics are robustly covered.
