Private Client Structured Training Programme

The College of Law offers a structured training programme covering the principal areas of private client practice that solicitors could encounter during their first three years of qualification.

To gain the most benefit from the course, delegates should have taken the Private Client electives in both the LPC and PSC, or acquired an equivalent level of knowledge through working in practice.

The training programme provides progressive development of technical expertise and skills, reinforcing experience gained in the office. The courses are interactive and focus on practical tasks, such as drafting/problem solving, with a minimum of formal lecturing. The tutors’ objective is to stimulate learning that can readily be applied to client work, in a friendly and purposeful environment.

Delegates will receive concise notes covering relevant law and practice, together with any case study documents in advance of each module.

The College of Law Private Client programme is modular:

Taxation 2 days
Wills and Post-death Arrangements 2 days
Foreign Element 1 day
Management of Wills and Trusts 1 day
Contentious Trusts and Probate 1 day
