Law
The Certificate of Higher Education in Law provides students with a structured introduction to legal study through four Level 4 modules. Together, these modules develop core academic and analytical skills while offering foundational knowledge of key areas of English law. It equips students with an essential grounding in legal systems, legal skills, legal reasoning and critical reflection and analysis.
The Cert HE is designed both as a standalone qualification and as a pathway into further legal study. The programme delivers three of the seven ‘Foundations of Legal Knowledge’ as required for law degrees by the Bar Standards Board for the academic stage of professional qualification. Successful completion may enable students to progress into the second year of an LLB at a range of universities, subject to their specific entry and progression requirements.
