COURSE OVERVIEW
If you are aiming for a career in law in England or Wales, this is the course you need.
The Legal Practice Course (LPC) is essential for anyone who wants to qualify as a solicitor in both countries, and will give you the practical skills and confidence you need for a career in this exciting and challenging profession.
Taught entirely by experienced solicitors and barristers, the course is designed for law graduates and those who hold a Graduate Diploma in Law. It bridges the gap between academic study and practical training.

The LPC completes the academic requirements to work as a solicitor, meaning you can then move into training with a law firm.
