Overview

This qualification will give you breadth of knowledge and understanding across a broad range of issues relevant to the legal services sector, but also equips you with the necessary occupational and core skills and behaviours to succeed in the industry. This course is aimed at learners who wish to progress into a career in legal services. You will work with one of our Industry Placement Liaison Officers and your tutor to find an industry placement that is right for you and your interests, and to set objectives with you.

On this course you will:

  • Learn the fundamental principles of law
  • Understand legal principles, concepts, and practices and how they link to the relevant industry areas
  • Develop an understanding of professionalism and ethics. You will explore professional conduct and responsibilities in the workplace as well as ethical dilemmas for the individual and the organisation
  • Develop a comprehensive level of knowledge of business in context as well as project and change management methodologies and theories
  • Undertake a substantial industry placement. You will complete a minimum of 315 hours of placement with an employer to develop your knowledge, skills and behaviours

Assessment: You will be assessed in the form of externally set exams and a project designed by a panel of top business firms and assessment experts.

This course is ideal if you have a interest in working within the support functional areas of the legal industry. If you aspire to be a Solicitor/Barrister, you should consider the Law A Level alternative.

Future Steps: On successful completion of the course, career options might include working as a legal clerk, paralegal assistant, or barrister’s clerk. You can also develop your knowledge and skills further by progressing on to an Apprenticeship, university, or our Foundation Degree in Business.
