About the webinar

This special webinar will explore the interplay between experiential learning and legal education and training, with a further consideration of the opportunities presented by the advent of apprenticeships in the solicitor pathway.

The expert panel brings experience from across the sector, with viewpoints from the cutting edge of clinical legal education, problem-based learning, and practice-based pedagogy.

Questions to be considered will include the implications of the SQE for practical legal education, developing solicitor apprenticeship pathways in HE, and the integration of legal clinics and internships as a fundamental aspect of degree programmes.

This will be fully interactive session and we look forward to questions and contributions from delegates.

The event is open to Legal Education specialists, practising lawyers, and all those with an interest in higher education, apprenticeships, and experiential learning.
