Have you heard about the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE)? The SQE is the new single, rigorous assessment for all aspiring solicitors – marking a step change in how people train and enter the profession. The SQE is intended to widen the ways to qualify as a solicitor but also make sure that everyone reaches the same high standards.

Join this webinar in association with the Sole Practitioners Group and the Solicitors Regulation Authority to get the detail on the SQE and the wider qualification changes from this September.

Hear from Julie Brannan, Director of Education and Training, SRA on:

  • SQE assessments – what they test and how
  • Qualifying work experience – what are the responsibilities for firms
  • Opportunities for law firms and employers
  • SQE assessment website
  • How to go about setting up apprenticeships
