WHAT IMPACT WILL THE INTRODUCTION OF THE SQE HAVE ON YOUR FIRM?
Does your firm know its LPC from its SQE and QWE? Will you keep a training contract model or adapt to a more flexible way of training the lawyers of the future?  The path to becoming a solicitor has now changed with the introduction of the Solicitors Qualifying Examination and as a result firms have some important decisions to make about how they will recruit in the future.
On Tuesday 12th July KLS and Kent Law School are aiming to help firms navigate this changing landscape by running a free information talk. The event starts at 6pm and will be held at Wigoder Moot Court and the University of Kent in Canterbury. Refreshments will be provided. Book here
