Practical Legal Training Programs and Courses

 

Your transition from law graduate to practising lawyer.

As you prepare for admission as an Australian or New Zealand lawyer, you want training that is effective and relevant.

The College can offer you this through:

  • informative and engaging training
  • supporting real life experience in a legal setting
  • continuing legal education and professional development

Learning in the College environment is different from learning substantive law in an academic environment. It involves practical content and interactive learning with supervision and feedback from experienced mentors.

What this means for you: 

  • a real life practical approach program 
  • lecturers with extensive professional experience in a range of practice areas
  • contact with graduates from a range of backgrounds
  • professional affiliations, legal contacts and networking opportunities
  • online learning using custom-built technology combined with lecturer interaction and feedback
  • currency and clarity of course materials
  • understanding of your needs and expectations
  • flexible access for regional students
  • in-house programs in association with participating law firms

You have the choice of completing your admission requirements through:

  • Graduate Diploma of Legal Practice - Australia
  • Professional Legal Studies Course - New Zealand
  • Trainee Admission Course - Queensland
  • Trainee Admission Course - Victoria
  • Overseas Lawyers Exemptee Programs - Australia
