The two years since the Legal Education and Training Review published its report Setting Standards in June 2013 have seen an unprecedented period of change in the legal training landscape. In May 2015, the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) introduced its new Continuing Competence scheme to replace the previous Continuing Professional Development regime, which had been in place since 1985, and solicitors are no longer required to attend the Management Course Stage 1 training.
