About IDIA
IDIA was initiated by Prof. (Dr.) Shamnad Basheer to reach out to the marginalized and under-represented groups, sensitize them to law as a viable career option and help interested students acquire admission in law schools, which are otherwise increasingly elitist spaces. The hope is that increasing access to legal education would contribute immensely to empowerment of the marginalized and underprivileged students and the communities they represent.

The Training and Materials Central Vertical (T&M) of IDIA is responsible for preparing trainees for CLAT and other law entrance examinations. The work of members will include preparing and organising:
1. Learning Material
To adapt to the new/latest CLAT pattern that is heavily analytical and comprehension based, we aim to create extensive material that our trainees can utilise to learn concepts and read faster. This will include creating short explanations in very simple language on Legal Aptitude, Quantitative Aptitude, English, Logical Reasoning and General Knowledge questions that frequent the new pattern.
2. Mock Tests
You will be required to create mock tests. The work would entail:
Creating and proof-reading mock tests calibrated to different difficulty levels.
Analysing test results so as to give detailed feedback.
Position:
The commitment period of a member is for a year, i.e., calendar year 2025. Members will be taken for each of the subjects forming part of the CLAT pattern – namely English, Quantitative Aptitude, Logical Reasoning, Legal Reasoning, General Knowledge. While you have the option of applying for more than one subject, it should be made clear that you will ultimately be selected only for one position.
