Who is this course for?

What you will learn

The SQE Foundations course will take place over four weeks, and you will need to dedicate around 15 hours of study per week to complete the course before moving onto your chosen SQE1 Prep course. The syllabus will give you an introduction to three key areas including:

  • The legal system of England & Wales;
  • Legal research – how to conduct and present it;
  • Core legal terms, concepts, and areas of practice.

The law covered in this course will also be covered in the SQE1 Prep course through additional lectures and exercises. SQE Foundations is a chance to acclimatise yourself to the study of law and, also to get you thinking like a lawyer.
