About this course

This 2-year programme is designed for graduates with a degree in a non-law subject who are keen to join the legal profession in Canada.

The dedicated Constitutional Law of Canada module provides excellent preparation for the National Committee on Accreditation (NCA) exam.

Our intensive accelerated LLB programme offers the possibility of a qualifying law degree in just 2 years. If you wish to follow the Juris Doctor (JD) pathway, you can opt to study the Constitutional Law of Canada module. You'll also become proficient in all the subjects required for a qualifying law degree. 

Our course tutors are active researchers who bring the latest legal developments, and their passion for their area of expertise, to the curriculum.
