LEADING THE WAY IN PREPARATION FOR THE SQE THROUGH COMPREHENSIVE LEGAL EDUCATION
The College of Legal Practice is leading the way in preparing students for the Solicitors Qualifying Examination – the SQE. The SQE has now replaced the Legal Practice Course (LPC) as the preferred route to qualification as a solicitor in England and Wales.
Our online legal training programmes are designed to help you pass the SQE, thanks to our experienced team led by CEO, Dr Giles Proctor, who was instrumental in the design of the SQE at Kaplan law school. We are an accredited, fully virtual law school based in the UK, with years of expertise in supporting students through every SQE assessment.
The legal training we offer is carefully designed to be flexible to meet the variety of students taking the SQE, including recent graduates, international students and those converting to law. We collaborate closely with partner firms and Universities, developing their SQE programmes that meets their needs. 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.
The College of Legal Practice is backed by over 50 years of experience in legal training, through The College of Law in Australia, helping give you the best chance of passing the SQE.
