Timetables for terms 4 and 5 of the BPP Legal Awareness Society (meetings now at Holborn)



The BPP Legal Awareness Society is a well-established and popular Society within BPP.

This timetable has been developed in line with the FT timetable at BPP Holborn which has been published on the VLE Blackboard. The BPP Legal Awareness Society is a student-run society for students at BPP to help them understand why and how regulation has an important part to play in a corporate strategy and for building competitive advantage.

The page of the BPP Legal Awareness Society on the official BPP website is here:

http://www.bppstudents.com/clubs/item/229/start/0/num/10/

As such, it is therefore an informal society for students to develop their interest in commercial awareness, appropriate for the basic professional training of student lawyers at BPP doing their Legal Practice Course as well as Masters level students at BPP studying finance, marketing, accountancy and tax disciplines at BPP University College. Any BPP student is welcome, and strongly encouraged to attend, especially those submitting vacation placement or training contract applications to corporate law firms for 2014 or beyond.

Our programme in this Society, to be held at BPP Holborn for the first time (we held all our meetings in the BPP Business School, St Mary Axe last time), is designed to complement the LPC course at BPP. The Society is entirely independent of BPP teaching, however. Your input into the development of the programme of LegalAware for terms 4 and 5 is much welcomed, and you’re strongly encouraged to involve yourself in the Society’s activities through Twitter.

In addition to the formal sessions below, we will be discussing pervasive issues of setting up and financing a company in English law, directors, shareholders, tax and business accounts and insolvency, as or when they occur.

In the timetable below, links are given to the ‘Legal Aware’ blog where background information can be found. We are currently finalising exact room bookings in BPP Law School as we speak, and this page will be continually updated as more information becomes available.
