This comprehensive secretarial programme leads to the Pitman Training Legal Secretarial Diploma - the most widely recognised qualification in its field and proof of your competence to employers.
And because we help over a hundred students to graduate and seek out legal secretarial positions every year, we know exactly what employers and recruitment agencies look for.
In addition, we are recognised by the Institute of Legal Executives (ILEX) as training providers for Continual Professional Development (CPD) so our Legal Secretary Diploma is nationally recognised for its practical content.
In fact, our training is extremely practical, enabling you to demonstrate your new knowledge and skills instantly and confidently.
Indeed, our diploma level legal secretarial course will help you with all the essential skills a lawyer will expect from you.
That means touch typing, shorthand, audio, expert use of MS Office and a thorough knowledge of the processes and forms appropriate to conveyancing, wills and probate, criminal law, company law, family law and civil litigation. What We Cover.
