    Centre for Legal Education Legal Education, Legal Practice and Technology Conference 2017 Friday 16 - Saturday 17 June 2017 Tweet at #NLSCLEC17 Email: [email protected] Nottingham Law School, Centre for Legal Education Conference 16 - 17 June 2017 LEGAL EDUCATION, LEGAL PRACTICE AND TECHNOLOGY Welcome to the third conference of the Nottingham Law School Centre for Legal Education, and a celebration of its fifth anniversary We are delighted to welcome so many to our conference this summer. The variety of papers and presentations is quite stunning and we are sure there will be food for thought for everyone in them, as well as links to be made and ideas to be shared. Some participants are old friends, others are new, but just as much welcome. We expect participation from 10 different countries. The Centre for Legal Education began as an internal discussion group which first met in June 2008, initially wishing to do no more than “raise the profile” of legal education both internally and externally. By 2012 it had become a fully-fledged research centre, launched on its way by Baroness Ruth Deech of the Bar Standards Board. Simply to take a snapshot, members of the Centre are currently working on ethics and values, sustainability, technology, numeracy, advocacy, SCALE-up, student wellness and motivation, mooting, CPD, learning in the workplace and professional regulation. Please tweet and blog at and about the conference. We’ll also be asking you for suggestions about the different ways in which we can capture the conference proceedings, and work related to them, for posterity.

  • University of Westminster LLM Legal Practice Course (LPC) Profile February 2017
    University of Westminster LLM Legal Practice Course (LPC) profile February 2017 Please note: The information contained in this profile is supplied by The University of Westminster; it is the provider's responsibility to keep this information up-to-date. Introduction from the SRA The SRA's requirements allow providers considerable freedom to design and focus their courses to meet the needs of particular student cohorts and particular types of legal practice. Providers have a corresponding responsibility to provide clear and useful information to those making choices about where to study and which particular course to follow. To enable potential students to make informed choices, the SRA requires all providers to supply a standard set of information about their provision. General information The University has a well established reputation in the delivery of undergraduate and postgraduate law courses having delivered law degrees since the 1970s and the Graduate Diploma (CPE) since the 1980s. The School of Law also enjoys an excellent reputation internationally for its Research; and is currently preparing its submission for the purposes of the REF (2014). The School of Law has delivered an LPC on a full-time basis since the course was first introduced in 1993. Shortly thereafter it was also validated to run a part-time evening course. The LPC teaching team thus has approximately 20 years' experience in the delivery of both full and time courses. The LLM LPC is delivered via the Westminster Law School which is located at 4-12 Little Titchfield
