Hi [USER=2672]@Jessica Booker[/USER] , [USER=30937]@axelbeugre[/USER] , some firms (SM, FF etc) are part of City Consortium and BPP (their provider) offers a very interesting SQE plus (mini rotation of 2-3 weeks across 4 pratice areas) in addition to SQE1 and SQE2 prep. W&Case also offers a similar program (SQE plus) through not a part of City Consortium. Some firms like Skadden don't say anything on their website about details of their SQE .


Are all SQE courses (sponsored by the firms as a part of TC) broadly the same ? How important a criteria (for a trainee) should the quality of SQE be as well as whether a firm gives details on its website ? Is City Consortium's SQE superior to others ? Is SQE plus something "extra" or do all firms offer it ? Am I overthinking on whether this should be  a criteria to decide where to train?


Thanks.
