The 2.5-year apprenticeships offer an alternative route to qualification, with apprentices working and earning alongside studying for the SQE1 and SQE2 assessments. They will dedicate one day a week to off-the-job learning, and will be supported by regular one-to-one coaching and skills development in the workplace from ULaw’s solicitor skills coaches.
Professor Andrea Nollent, ULaw’s vice chancellor and CEO, said: ‘We pride ourselves on delivering innovative and practical teaching to prepare the next generation of legal minds for the working world. The Graduate Solicitor Apprenticeship scheme matches industry knowledge with proven teaching methods to ensure that our apprentices can fulfil their potential in the legal sector. It’s hugely exciting to see our first apprentices starting out on the new SQE route.’
