"Law Conversion Courses"

If you want to have a career as a lawyer (a barrister or solicitor) you will need to have the right qualifications.

For those that do not have an undergraduate degree in law, the law conversion course (sometimes called graduate diploma in law – GDL – or common professional exam – CPE) must be passed successfully before you move onto professional qualifications.

The law conversion course is an intensive one-year course (or two years if you complete the course part-time whilst also working), with the aim to bring non-law graduates quickly up to speed.

After the law conversion course, those who wish to become solicitors take the legal practice course (LPC) and those who wish to become barristers move on to the bar vocational course (BVC).
