âś… Step 1 - Finding Your Feet
Setting Yourself Up for Success
Make sense of how a law firm operates day-to-day - from how work is allocated and communicated to systems, expectations and protocols, so you can settle in quickly.
Law Firm Policies, Processes & Procedures
From calls and files to written communications and documents, understand the core processes that keep a law firm running.
âś… Step 2 - Making Your Work Count
Basics of Law Firm Business
Although it can seem like background admin, getting clear on how the business side of a law firm affects your day‑to‑day work puts time recording, billing and budgets into context.
âś… Step 3 - Managing Client Files
The Most Effective Ways to Handle Client Files
Learn how to manage client files day-to day - from tasks, documents and deadlines to next steps - so matters stay organised and nothing is missed.
âś… Step 4 - Client Inquiries
Taking Care of Telephone Inquiries Professionally
Handling telephone enquiries in a law firm requires knowing what to say, what to note, and where to direct calls - so initial contact is clear and directed appropriately from the outset.
âś… Step 5 - Conferences & Briefs
Your Essential Skills for Organising Meetings and Conferences
Organising meetings and conferences in a law firm means coordinating people, availability, and materials - bringing everything together at the right time so it all runs smoothly.
How to Prepare an Impressive Barrister’s Brief
Preparing a barrister’s brief can feel overwhelming when working through large amounts of material - identify what matters and structure it clearly for counsel.
âś… Step 6 - Client communication
Core Competencies for Effective Client Communications
Client communication across emails, letters and calls requires knowing how to respond in each situation - so everything is clear, accurate and followed through properly.
Top Tips for Taking Client Instructions
Taking client instructions isn’t just note‑taking - it involves knowing what to ask, how to guide the discussion and how the process works before, during and after meeting with your client.
âś… Step 7 - Everyday Ethics
Everyday Ethics
Everyday ethics can come up in conversations, social media use or trying to help out a client - good intentions aren’t enough, they require sound professional judgement.

For graduates, one CPD unit may be claimed per one‑hour recorded video webinar module.
Relevant categories include Practice Management and Business Skills, and Professional Skills.
