Paralegal and Legal Studies Qualifications

If you want to become a qualified paralegal, why not choose the UK's leading range of paralegal qualifications?

Since 1994 ILEX has offered a range of nationally and internationally approved qualifications, which are now delivered in partnership with City & Guilds. These are the UK's oldest and most popular paralegal qualifications. Over 20,000 people have taken these leading range of qualifications.

If you have not studied law before, but wish to start a legal career, take a look at the Level 2 Award/Certificate/Diploma in Legal Studies qualification. It provides you with the underpinning knowledge which will help you in your day-to-day work and will also allow you to progress onto the ILEX route to becoming a lawyer. The qualification is divided into units and is examined by assignments and a multiple-choice test.

If you already have a knowledge of law but would like to increase that knowledge either in Welfare Benefits, Employment or Civil Litigation take a look at our Level 3 Diploma in Vocational Paralegal Studies qualification. The qualification is divided into units and again, is assessed by way of assignments.

All of the above qualifications offer:

  • A flexible route
  • No entry requirements (although a Grade C or above in English Language GCSE is desirable)
  • A choice of when and where to study
  • Earn while you learn
  • A recognised qualification.
