The Truman Bodden Law School will be moving from Monaco Towers in George Town after nearly two decades at the location.

The school, following Cayman Compass queries, confirmed that it will be relocating from the Towers, formerly known as the old CIBC building, to take up residence at Artemis House in George Town.

“Artemis House has undergone significant renovations in order to provide a custom fit for the Law School, with the move enabling the introduction of a fourth teaching room, much welcomed with the growing numbers of students in recent years,” the school said in an emailed statement.

In April, Caribbean Structured Cabling was awarded an $11,410 contract to conduct re-cabling and re-wiring of Artemis House to make it functional for the school.

Workforce Opportunities & Residency Cayman currently uses the building for its customer care services such as payments, submission of applications and passport endorsement stamps.

The Truman Bodden Law School will close briefly on Thursday, 27 June from 12pm to 5pm to enable the final stages of the move, the statement said.

The school will open on Friday, 28 June in its new home.

The Truman Bodden Law School, formerly the Cayman Islands Law School, was founded in George Town in 1982 by the governor “to provide legal training for Caymanian individuals seeking to enter the legal profession,” according to its profile.

Currently there are 91 students enrolled at the law school.

It is part of the Cayman Islands Government’s Portfolio of Legal Affairs, headed by the attorney general.

All of its lecturers are also members of the Cayman Islands Attorney General’s Chambers.
