SQE Prep

Now that the Graduate Diploma in Law (GDL) and Legal Practice Course (LPC) have been replaced, it’s important that you offer incoming associates wishing to practice in England and Wales the opportunity to adequately prepare for the new Solicitors Qualifying Exam (SQE).

And, while the exam may be new, the same methodologies that make BARBRI the gold standard for US Bar Review are now available for SQE prep. In fact, while others were slow to adapt from the old qualifications system, BARBRI was proactive, developing 10, 20, and 40-week prep course options for the SQE1, as well as a 12-week course for SQE2.

BARBRI offers flexible online courses, with equally flexible part-time study, which is very popular with overseas lawyers and paralegals from both UK and global law firms.

Best of all, it’s yet another recruitment and retention edge for any firm dealing with the UK legal system.

Why Your Team Needs SQE Prep

  • England and Wales is the second largest legal system in the world
  • From 2022, most employees will be expected to have qualified under the SQE
  • Innovation and investment will be directed towards the SQE as universities, law firms and employers begin focusing on the new qualification
  • Unlike the full-time LPC, the BARBRI SQE Prep offers greater flexibility
  • Many smaller LPC providers will discontinue their course or migrate to SQE preparation, making it difficult to gain a place in an affordable or convenient LPC
