Summary/Abstract: Legal education, even if it is perceived as predominantly „legal technical”, to a large extent articulates a system of values that the student acquires in pre-university education. The training of truly effective practitioners involves both a legal culture embedded in a broader social value system and, above all, the development of critical thinking and cognitive skills that enable the development of legal reasoning. Law faculties must respond to the needs of the professional environment, including by offering courses focused on the development of competences for students, aiming primarily at developing skills that allow critical reflection on the effects of legal norms on regulated social relations, including transversal competences, such as the training of skills to develop logical-legal reasoning, the training of skills to analyse relevant judicial practice or the ability to analyze and criticize, where appropriate, legal norms.
