Trainee Solicitors / PSC

The BPP Professional Skills Course (PSC) is the final stage of your compulsory training to become a solicitor – preparing you for a smooth transition to life in a legal firm. The programme is designed to give you the variety, choice and flexibility to equip you with the practical skills and knowledge to progress in your chosen career.

Our flexible PSC programme offers a wide choice of Electives – allowing you to match your study modules with your career direction and professional interests. From September 2020, BPP are offering five routes of suggested Electives so you can tailor your training to your particular area of practice or choose from the entire BPP range of topics. BPP’s PSC has been designed against the SRA specification and the CBI Employability Skills framework so you can monitor the development of your professional skills through your study with us. We also provide you with a Skills Portfolio which you can complete to demonstrate your achievements to employers.


Study in a way that suits you – with the freedom to fast track your modules or complete them at a more relaxed pace.

As a trainee you are entitled to a personal Trainee Solicitor Membership giving you up to 50% discount on BPP's CPD courses. What's more the Trainee Membership is absolutely FREE. To find out more phone us on 2020 226 2422
