Abstract
Aim. To study the legislative framework for the digitalization of legal education in the Russian Federation, identifying problems and development prospects.
Methodology. This study analyses regulations governing the field of education and information technology, as well as scientific publications on the digitalization of education. Comparative analysis, system analysis, and content analysis methods have been used.
Results. The key legislative acts defining the digital transformation of legal education have been determined. An attempt was made to identify gaps in legal regulation, and improvements in legislation are proposed. The results of this study can contribute to the development of the theory and legal regulation of the digital transformation of higher education.
Research implications. The theoretical significance of the work lies in the systematization and generalization of legal norms governing the digitalization of education, including legal education, as well as in the identification of current challenges and prospects for the development of legislation in this area. The conclusions and recommendations can be used in the development and improvement of regulations in the field of digital transformation of education, as well as in the development of educational programs and teaching methods in law schools.
