Paralegal Level 7
The Level 7 Post Graduate Diploma
in Paralegal Practice is an ideal qualification for:

Students with a Law BA, legal Common Professional Examination (CPE)/Graduate Diploma in Law (GD) or LLB which have been successfully completed within the past seven years. If your degree pre-dates this, your subsequent experience may be taken into consideration. If you have completed your LLB outside of the UK, you must provide proof that you have studied the English legal system. Overseas students must have proficiency in English to IELTS 6 or equivalent.
If you are a non UK law Graduate and have NOT studied the English Legal System as part of your Law Degree, you have the option of studying Part 1 of the Level 4 Diploma in Paralegal Studies: General Principles of Law before commencing this course.
The course has been developed to make the transition between academic study at degree level and knowledge of the day-to-day procedures and skills required to function effectively as a Licensed Paralegal Practitioner.
Diploma and topics explained
The Diploma must be completed within two years from enrolment and should take between four and six months of study. As part of their professional development, students may also study for individual units without completing the Diploma. This can be particularly helpful for overseas students studying in the UK for a law qualification. They can ask for exemptions from the subjects they have studied with NALP.
How will I be taught and assessed?
Assessment is by online examination. Typical exam questions might be:
A pass mark of 45% is set for each unit assignment – and every learning outcome detailed at enrolment must be achieved. Merit is set at 65% and a distinction is 80%
