Summary

This course has been designed specifically to prepare you for both parts of the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE1 and SQE2), and also to enable you to gain the additional experience and lawyers’ skills required for employment in professional legal practice.

At the core of the course is comprehensive training for SQE1 and SQE2. In addition, you'll choose a number of practice-area modules and complete a professional legal practice module, to help further your professional career goals. Your SQE and practice-focused learning will be supported by tutors who are qualified legal practitioners, experienced in vocational and professional training.

Your SQE1 training focuses on developing a comprehensive understanding of the foundations of legal knowledge, including extensive practice in answering SQE1-format multiple choice questions (MCQs). This is underpinned with training in the five core SQE1 practice areas of dispute resolution, property, business law, criminal practice, and wills. This will include problem-based and transactional learning, pioneered in the UK by York Law School.

Your SQE2 training will take place exclusively in the context of scenarios and materials that replicate the SQE2 assessments. You'll have frequent opportunities to practise and develop the required oral and written skills, receiving regular feedback on how you are meeting the SQE2 assessment criteria.
