Supervising Legal Apprentices Training
How to supervise a law apprentice
Overview
Supervising legal apprentices is different to supervising trainee solicitors. Most of them are fresh out of school with limited office based experience, so it can be a steep learning curve for both the supervisor and the apprentice!
This e-learning course will give you tips and techniques to make sure you nurture the youngest talent in your firm.
What is a law/legal apprenticeship?
Legal apprenticeships are targeted at students who have left school or college after completing GCSEs, A-levels or AS-Levels. They are also an option for those who are already working in a support or paralegal role in a law firm.
In September 2016 the Law Society launched apprenticeships for solicitors, legal executives and paralegals as an alternative route into the solicitor profession. As such you can now complete a law apprenticeship to qualify for a variety of roles including:
- Solicitor (as part of the Solicitors Qualifying Examination)
- Paralegal
- Chartered Legal Executive (CILEx)
