Peter Nussey explains how to help bridge the gap between training & work
In 2009, Richard Susskind reviewed the College of Law’s e-learning as “an innovative, exciting, and important technique for the world of legal education”. In 2010, he said: “The conventional law lecture will soon be superseded by e-learning.” While e-learning has become reasonably well established within the academic environment, it has yet to become widely adopted by the wider legal world. A number of law firms and vendors have created e-learning programmes to ensure compliance with SRA diversity, equality, and data protection regulations, however, these fall short of providing the sort of technical legal training demanded by practitioners and, in particular, juniors and trainees.
