The ILEX courses will allow legal secretaries to train further and perhaps eventually become solicitors themselves. Souters is a City and Guilds centre and therefore able to offer the ILEX courses in association with both organisations.

Souters offers these courses in full time and part-time time slots that are convenient to students; more importantly, apart from fixed course dates indicated in our online schedule, assignments and some practical elements can be completed at a time that suits you and at home if wanted or at our fully IT equipped centre.

There are a few set dates when you need to attend our training centre but a lot of the work can be done at home if preferred. The whole process is flexible in times of attendance but you should allow up to six months to complete each level comfortably.

The opportunity to have internationally recognised legal training whilst gaining valuable on-the-job experience.

Course Requirement

A good level of the English language and good IT skills

Course objective

To provide the student with a good basic understanding of work in a legal office and practical experience of performing the type of routine functions which are required of a legal secretary.

Course structure

There are two units in this course: -  

1. Legal Word Processing
2. Working in the Legal Environment.

The process can take several years so legal secretarial students can be employed throughout this period of study allowing them to also gain valuable on-the-job experience.

The City and Guilds ILEX qualification is recognised in the legal sector both in the UK and internationally.
