Courses for local authority legal departments


Many local authorities use our courses in law and legal practice in a number of different departments. The wide subject choice and range of academic level offered, allows training managers to select the ideal course for staff in a wide variety of job roles, not just those in the legal department.

Introductory courses for non-legal staff

Our ILEX Level 3 courses are ideal for introductory-level study.  An introductory course in the Law of Contract is an ideal starting point for purchasing staff, whereas staff working in social welfare might benefit from an introductory course in Family Law.

Higher-level courses for non-legal staff

In-depth subject knowledge can be gained through our Level 6 courses. These are at the equivalent to honours-degree level for law subjects, or LPC-level for legal practice subjects. Courses can be studied individually or as part of a broader ILEX qualification depending on the aspirations of the student.

Courses that have been used by local authority staff in the past include our Level 6 course in Planning Law and our Level 6 course in Landlord and Tenant Law.

Courses for staff in the legal department

If you would like to discuss your staff’s development needs with us please contact Jenny Pelling, Business Director, on 01234 844326.
