Changes in Washington and Arizona

The State of Washington has currently merged two of their educational units. The Judicial Information System Education (JIS), which trains judges and court personnel on the State’s computer systems, and the Judicial Services Division (JSD) Education Department, which educates judicial officers and court personnel much like many of the NASJE members. Their new name is Judicial Education Services and is managed by Doug Ford with support by NASJE member Judith Anderson, who acts as the liaison between the two units. This is a new and challenging time for the State of Washington. Over the next year the merged units will become instrumental in providing education and training to the judiciary.

After six and a half years in Washington State, on August 1st, Marna Murray began as the Education Services Director for the Arizona Supreme Court.
