We will be at the Freshers’ Fair this Friday, 1 – 5 pm Victoria House, Bloomsbury Square, London WC1B 4DA. A chance for new and existing BPP students to sign up to BPP’s clubs and societies as well as meet loads of external exhibitors (companies, organisations and charities of all kinds!) It’s one of the biggest events in the BPP student calendar so MAKE SURE YOU’RE THERE!

At BPP, some law students already have training contracts to go to, after they have successfully passed the core practice areas and the electives of the Legal Practice Course. According to Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) regulations, it is necessary to pass the academic stage of training, through for example a law degree or the GDL, to be able to do the Legal Practice Course (LPC). All LPC students must be allowed by the SRA to be able to do the LPC in the first place.

The BPP Legal Awareness Society is a student club based in Holborn, but inclusive of all students at BPP through widespread publication of our activities on our blog, Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter (@legalaware). The Society has regular meetings here in Holborn, in Central London.

The main function of the BPP Legal Awareness Society is to discuss how corporate clients maximise competitive advantage in their chosen sector, with reference to an in-depth discussion of corporate strategy, domestic and international marketing, operations management, innovation management, organisational culture and structures, leadership, performance management, and management accounting. The Society is suitable for law students of any background who do not have a formal qualification in economics, business, finance or accounting, but who do wish to understand the precise context of commercial law.

To this end, being introduced for this intake, including students for the ‘accelerated LPC’ who wish to do well in their LPC before going onto their chosen firms to complete their contract firm, we will be launching a brand new “Corporate Client Strategy” project, where members of our Society are invited to give presentations on clients of their firms. All research will be done only on the basis of information only in the public domain, and the aim of these presentations is to offer a high-level interactive discussion of business strategic decisions faced by corporate clients and their law firms, and to further competences in research, commercial awareness, teamwork and communication.

To support this new project, please email legalaware1213@gmail.com ; you could be a student of any level of your studies (GDL, LLB, LLM or LPC), or may even be a professional involved in commercial and corporate law or education. Please use as the subject “CCSP” in sending an email, and you will receive an immediate reply.
