Paralegal Apprentice
An exciting opportunity for five successful candidates to join our apprenticeship programme based at our Tunbridge Wells office.
The paralegal apprenticeship is aimed at Year 13 students and school leavers interested in a career in law but who prefer hands on training rather than full-time University.
This two year programme includes a mixture of on-the-job learning four days a week and training from BPP University Law School on-line one day a week. On completion of the apprenticeship, apprentices can continue to study for a law degree as a Solicitor Apprentice.
You will study 4 law modules, client care, legal research and complete a portfolio of coursework and sit assessments for each law module. At the end of the two years, you will complete an End of Point Assessment and receive a Level 3 paralegal qualification.
Our apprentices move around the business every 6 months working with solicitors across our three core markets, drafting legal documents, meeting with clients and undertaking legal research.
