Law Postgraduate Non-Degree

Continuing Legal Education is a requirement of the Law Society of New South Wales, and practising solicitors are required to obtain ten units of MCLE annually in order to maintain registration as a legal practitioner. Continuing Professional Development is also a requirement of the New South Wales Bar Association. Barristers are required to accrue ten points each practising certificate year.



The Single Unit Enrolment program allows you to attend lectures, receive relevant reading materials, and gain access to the unit’s online e-Learning website. You are not required to undertake assignments or examinations.



Courses are offered by one of two methods, either attendance one night per week for 13 weeks between 6.00-8.00pm. Courses offered as intensive units are normally conducted over four or five days between 9.00am – 5.00pm.



Under the MCLE/CPD Rules and Guidelines you may claim one “unit” for each hour of attendance, refreshment breaks not included. Postgraduate units of study cover 26 hours of lectures.
