The legal field, like many industries, continuously evolves, and you need to keep up with complex developments to be successful. While continuing education programs will keep you up-to-date, there’s a certain amount of training that should be taking place at all times to foster the skills and knowledge. Pakistan’s 1st practical legal training programme is a practical training course delivered in Pakistan for the first time which aims to hone the skills of the trainees in order to excel in their respective career. This programme aims to promote a better understanding of the profession by bridging the gap between the academic realm and the real world.
Trainees will get to work on practical issues which are more demanding in nature and thus need greater attention from lawyers, legal practitionersor CSS officers. While doing so, you get an in-depth knowledge of such regulations or rules which help you secure a better job with some of the most coveted employers. The training programme is going help you get a placement in your choice of firm including multinational companies.
All Practical Legal Training subjects are assessed orally or via video conferencing. As believed that oral assessments are the best way to determine your understanding of the content and your ability to analyse and solve a problem. Oral assessments also offer you the opportunity to practise thinking on your feet – just like a lawyer does.
