How we support you

Supported at every step.

The programme is built for people completely new to law. From day one you have a Progress Tutor, structured feedback and a clear path to the end-point assessment.

A dedicated Progress Tutor

The same expert Progress Tutor from onboarding to end-point assessment and CLC submission. One-to-one Zoom tutorials every 12 weeks.

Live learning

Face-to-face one-to-one sessions with an expert tutor, plus live group workshops with your cohort. Never a recording playing at you. Real conversations, real questions answered on the spot.

The Datalaw Learning Platform

All your workshop recordings, module notes and portfolio in one place. Accessible for 12 months after you qualify.

Portfolio review before EPA

In the final months we work with you and your line manager to make sure your evidence meets every standard.

Best-practice legal training

Every workshop, tutorial and assignment is grounded in current CLC best practice. How good firms actually run files today. You leave modelling how senior fee-earners work, not textbook theory.

Off-the-job training built in

Off-the-job training hours are tracked and evidenced for you against your standard's minimum. Live workshops, private tutorials, self-study and reflection all count. No spreadsheets to keep, no last-minute scramble at EPA.

I love having my 1-to-1 coach, she is brilliant… she is really supportive and we have a lovely chat figuring out what my goals are and navigating through what I need to achieve.

Deep-diving into leasehold and CLC conduct rules is exactly the level of specialism I need to run my own files as a Licensed Conveyancer.

The double-entry bookkeeping modules gave me confidence with client account management I didn't have before. Invaluable in property practice.
