GRADUATE DIPLOMA IN LAW (GDL)
(full-time, part-time and distance learning)
BPP's GDL helps with the transition from undergraduate study to legal practice by converting any degree into a legal qualification. Taught using a practical, student-focused approach, the GDL provides an invaluable foundation for practice. The course also features the optional 'GDL Extra' and company law programmes, so you can specialise early. By completing two extra modules, BPP GDL students can upgrade to an LLB..
LEGAL PRACTICE COURSE
(LPC) (full-time and part-time)
BPP's LPC has been designed in close collaboration with leading law firms. Our programme reflects the growing need for lawyers with business acumen and uses MBA-style training in business and finance with simulated client portfolios and client relations sessions. It's taught by solicitors from various practice backgrounds using a high number of small group sessions and lectures in three different formats. We offer a range of electives, ensuring you can study the area that interests you. Although competition for places is intense, BPP LLB and GDL graduates are guaranteed a place on the LPC.
BAR PROFESSIONAL TRAINING COURSE (BPTC)
