Overview

Our Postgraduate Diploma in Law (PGDL) is a law conversion course that teaches student to think like a lawyer and prepare for the realities of life in legal practice. This course replaces our Graduate Diploma in Law (GDL) and provides the foundation for the pathway into practice for non-law graduates who want to progress onto the SQE1 Preparation Course, and our LLM Legal Practice (SQE1&2) to qualify as a solicitor or the Bar Practice Course (BPC) to qualify as a barrister. Our PGDL conversion course offers student a great chance to make the transition into legal study with excellent levels of support and guidance from our experienced, professional lecturers. Not only will student learn the academic law necessary for converting to law, but student will also focus on key skills and competencies crucial for their development as a lawyer.
