Judicial Studies Center

Judicial Studies Center

The Judicial Studies Center (Portuguese: Centro de Estudos Judiciários) is the Portuguese State Department which provides training for future judges and prosecutors who will perform in courts of law. It also organizes courses for current judges, prosecutors and lawyers concerning matters which are deemed useful for their activity. It was founded in 1980 and admits graduates in law who are selected after passing written and oral examinations as well as a psychological interview.

Training involves classes at its facilities and practical experiment in courts of law, under the supervision of the Judicial Studies Center.

Its facilities are located in Lisbon, in a building which served as a jail until 1974, for over 400 years. Formerly, it was the residence of part of the royal family and later it was the place where money was coined.
