"Before I began the LPC I was apprehensive
about the prospect of becoming a trainee.
Although I enjoyed my law degree I did
not feel like it had prepared me for life in
practice. I could explain complex academic
ideas but how would I interact with clients in
the real world?
After starting the LPC at BPP my confidence
soon began to grow. Every aspect of studying
at BPP is geared to prepare you for life in
practice. The LPC challenges you to develop
the skills that are crucial for a solicitor,
the ability to understand the commercial
environment in which the law operates and
advise clients in a practical manner.
As the tutors at BPP have all been in practice
they can draw upon their experiences as well
as their expertise to make the transition from
academic study to practical application as
easy as possible. The tutors are professional
yet approachable and supportive at all times;
they encourage you to ask those questions
that may seem obvious as it's better to make
a mistake in the classroom then in front of a
client."
