[QUOTE="TCLA Community Assistant, post: 34405, member: 2672"] It never needed to be in England and Wales (why so many firms offered international secondments for trainees) - so this is not an issue. The QWE can be anywhere as long as it is signed off by an lawyer who is qualified in England and Wales. The thing you need to consider though is whether this will make you employable. I suspect for outside of the U.K., being Qualified in England and Wales will be a major advantage. However, if you are looking to work in the U.K., my concern is that having a lot of different experiences and not a formal training contract will not be attractive to many firms. There is a risk that you are deemed qualified but under experienced for a NQ role, but over qualified for a trainee role. [/QUOTE]
