First class training for legal secretaries and paralegals

For over two decades we have been running legal courses for those employed in administrative functions involving the law and for other interested parties that, for one reason or another, needed to familiarise themselves thoroughly with a specific area of legal expertise. Our location in the heart of the City of London, close to the offices of many leading solicitors and barristers chambers, combined with our reputation for excellence ensures that we are uppermost in people’s minds when they think of legal training. As well as the many courses for support staff, we are also able to arrange part time law courses in London for solicitors working towards their CPD goals. With access to a number of extremely talented tutors and accreditation from the Law Society and the SRA, we are understandably popular and proud of the results we have achieved in the past. Although we believe that all the units of study we offer are eminently affordable, it is possible to take more than one module in a package and receive a discount on the standard prices making them even better value for money. One of these packages that is in demand with people working for large companies is our business law course, which combines the corporate and commercial law units to give students a well-rounded and in-depth knowledge. This stands them in good stead when dealing with the legal issues that corporations in the UK are faced with on a regular basis, during the course of their work.

From a distance

We understand that not everybody finds it convenient to study in London so are pleased to be able to offer many of our modules as distance learning courses. In addition to enabling students from all over the country to benefit from our experience by taking units such as the employment law course over the internet, which covers the writing of a contract amongst other things, the fees are more manageable for people on a tight budget. This means that with some determination and self-discipline it is possible to gain the same knowledge as those attending our training centre, at a lower cost. Employees in provincial solicitors’ offices can hone their skills and knowledge in their spare time by studying the same material they would face in our dedicated training centre in the comfort of their own home. Access to our highly experienced tutors for people that are studying an ILEX law course online is via email, telephone and a chat room where advice can be sought on any subject that is proving a little difficult. The certificates that we award on completion of all our courses are widely recognised in the United Kingdom and overseas, and throughout the year there is no shortage of employers requesting that we put them in touch with students who have successfully completed one of our modules. Anybody that is interested in a career in an administrative role dealing with the law will find that our litigation units and conveyancing law course are ideal preparation.
