Delegates at this seminar considered next steps for reform following last year's Legal Education and Training Review (LETR). The discussion was timed as key legal regulators took forward plans for implementing their response to the LETR, including the Solicitor Regulation Authority's current Training for Tomorrow policy statement, and the Bar Standards Board's Education Strategy Framework.
Sessions brought together key stakeholders working across the current legal education and training framework - including colleges, universities, careers advisory services, vocational training providers and regulators - alongside law firms, chambers and wider legal employers. Delegates had particular opportunity to consider the prospects for developing new qualification pathways and access routes to legal professions, as well as possible changes to competency frameworks and Continuing Professional Development. Sessions also focused on current proposals to streamline regulatory involvement in education and training processes, and the challenges ahead for a revised framework in supporting both innovation and standards.
