Level 3 Professional Diploma in Law and Practice
The Level 3
Professional Diploma in Law and Practice is a broad-based,
practical introduction to Law and Legal Practice. It requires that
students achieve across key areas of Law and Legal Practice (ie
mandatory Law units consist of: Contract Law, Criminal Law, Land
Law and Law of Tort).
The Level 3 Professional Diploma in Law and
Practice has been developed as a unitised qualification which
permits students to adopt a flexible and tailor-made approach to
learning. Whilst all students undertake a certain amount of core
study, there is also room for students to take units which reflect
their main areas of interest.
The qualification also includes
a practical legal skills component. The Professional Skills
units (units 16 and 17) require that students demonstrate key
transferable legal skills in practical situations.
The mandatory inclusion of these units in the
Level 3 Professional Diploma in Law and Practice ensures that
the qualification both reflects the pace of change in the legal
sector and that ILEX students are well-prepared to embrace this
change.
The qualification consists of 10 units in
total which are each assessed by ILEX and accumulated by the
student. Each unit is regarded as a worthwhile achievement in its
own right and certification is available at unit level.
The units are chosen from a suite of
17 units in accordance with the qualification rules.
