Your law degree counts towards becoming a Chartered Legal Executive lawyer

Please see link below to details of the CILEx Graduate Fast-track Diploma.


What exactly is the Fast-track Diploma?  Well, it's an alternative route to a legal career instead of studying for the LPC or BPTC.  Once qualified as a Chartered Legal Executive you will gain a recognised professional status and have the opportunity to become a partner in a law firm, or even become a judge. The cost of the Fast-track Diploma is considerably less than the LPC or BPTC, currently at around £2500.
As a law graduate you can study the Fast-track Diploma by distance learning with CILEx Law School.  You will need to study 2 CILEx Level 6 practice units plus the Level 6 Client Care unit in order to pass the Diploma.  Details of the units available are in the link below.

Once you have completed the Diploma you will become a Graduate Member of CILEx. In order to become a Chartered Legal Executive you must complete three years of qualifying employment plus be able to demonstrate that you meet the work-based learning criteria through completion of a portfolio of evidence.
