[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 164167, member: 2672"] With the increase in solicitor apprenticeship opportunities, TCLA wanted to start a forum and thread for those seeking these opportunities in 2024. If you complete a solicitor apprenticeship, you’ll receive the same qualifications as someone who has taken a traditional route to becoming a lawyer, but you’ll avoid student debt, earn while you learn, and get on-the-job training. [HEADING=2][B][SIZE=4]What is a solicitor apprenticeship?[/SIZE][/B][SIZE=4] [/SIZE][/HEADING] Solicitor apprenticeships are aimed at post A-level students, as well as those already working in the world of law, like paralegals who do not have a degree level qualification. As you complete a law degree and SQE qualifications during the apprenticeship, they are generally not suited to those who have already obtained a degree level qualification. For those with a degree, they should look for training contracts or Graduate Solicitor Apprenticeships (which are typically 27-30 months instead of solicitor apprenticeships, which are 6 years). A Solicitor Apprenticeship is a Level 7 degree-level programme, which is completed in six years. You’ll train as a lawyer and study the same qualifications as those completing a training contract. [HEADING=2][B][SIZE=4]How does a solicitor apprenticeships work?[/SIZE][/B][SIZE=4] [/SIZE][/HEADING] By the end of the apprenticeship, you’ll take the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE) to qualify as a solicitor. Apprentices will also obtain a law degree or degree level qualification through their training too. You’ll receive these qualifications and training at no cost to you, meaning you won’t build up debt while training as a lawyer. On top of this, you’ll earn a salary. You’ll spend approximately 20% of your time studying for these qualifications with a training provider, like a university. The rest of your time will be spent building practical skills by applying your knowledge in the workplace alongside experienced lawyers. Although you will have 20% of your time dedicated to the apprenticeship training, you will receive a full-time salary. To be eligible to start the apprenticeship, you will usually need a level 3 qualification, such as A-levels, BTECs, or a Level 3 apprenticeship. [/QUOTE]
