The courses are carefully designed to meet the needs of both individuals and law firms as they transition to the new qualification pathway. Designed for online, our courses are flexible, affordable and accessible.
Our not-for-profit ethos means we keep our programmes low-cost and high-value. Taught by experienced solicitors, our content is grounded in real-world legal practice, with expert personal supervision and support, highly rated by our students.
