Lives are being changed every day and with over 750 students and 315 graduates, the best is yet to come!

  • Enhancing the Standard of Legal Education in Zambia: Challenges and Prospects
    ENHANCING THE STANDARD OF LEGAL EDUCATION IN ZAMBIA: CHALLENGES AND PROSPECTS BY DR CHIPASHA MULENGA, LLD, AHCZ EXECUTIVE DEAN – SCHOOL OF LAW, UNIVERSITY OF LUSAKA, ZAMBIA ABSTRACT The core of legal education should be to prepare students for the different roles they will assume after law school. This seemingly modest idea, however, actually creates a daunting challenge as lawyers’ roles are multifaceted. Where there is little attention paid to legal education, the result is a deterioration of standards thereby affecting the quality of law graduates produced by legal education institutions. It has been asserted that the standard of legal education in Zambia has not attained the required heights but has, on the contrary, over the years, gradually deteriorated. This contention mostly centres on fundamental aspects that legal education institutions have not, over the years, been addressed. To address this perception, accreditation of schools of law has been introduced as a mandatory requirement. It is argued, with optimism, that accreditation could be a panacea. Regrettably, however, accreditation does not appear to fully ameliorate the present state of legal education in Zambia especially that the empowering statute is fraught with frailties. There are, however, some positive aspects which, if addressed properly, would spur legal education to greater heights. The article, therefore, argues that legal education in Zambia is under siege and if the situation remains unaddressed, it could eventually lead to the collapse of legal education, however, the situation is not beyond reprieve. KEYWORDS: Accreditation; Higher Education Authority; Legal Education; Legal Education Institutions; Zambia Institute for Advanced Legal Education. 1 INTRODUCTION Legal education has a fundamental part to play in society.

Chalungumana, Investrust Bank-Industrial Branch, P.O. Box 32344, Lusaka, Zambia ABSTRACT The future of Africa and indeed Zambia depends on the development of its human capacity - the ability for citizens to develop and apply new ideas. Through education, individuals acquire the skills they need to provide for themselves, contribute to the health and welfare of their families and communities, solve local problems, and grow the local and national economy. The role of universities in national development is the subject of interest. Universities have a major role to play in equipping students with knowledge and skills that would position them to be productive in society. With a growing demand in higher education in Zambia, public universities find it difficult to admit a large number of prospective students due to limited resources and spaces. In this regard, private participation in the provision of tertiary education has become paramount. A large number of private universities have been opened in the country. These universities are helping to meet the unfulfilled demand for higher education in the country.
