Full-time option (40 hours per week)

The full-time option includes four 2.5 hour workshops per week which are supported by i-Tutorial, online test and feedback exercises and independent reading and research. We also offer students the option of all face-to-face tuition concentrated into two set days per week.

Flexible part-time options (20 hours per week)

We offer a range of two-year part-time study options, allowing students to combine study with full-time work or other commitments. This flexible approach allows you to manage your time and your finances so that you get the most from your course. Your sessions will be supported by i-Tutorials, online test and feedback exercises and independent reading and research.

And, if you’re studying part-time, there are still plenty of opportunities to meet and work with fellow students and to hone your legal skills through our practice-related activities.

From 2010, we’ll be offering a new 16 month part-time evening study option at our Manchester centre. By finishing in January, this will enable you to fast-track your route to qualification.

Please note that the availability of part-time programmes is subject to demand.
