Unit Choices

As the year draws closer to an end, we get the exciting job of being able to pick our optional units for year two. So far we have only had compulsory units, and now we really get to personalise our course and tailor it to our future.

The University of Bedfordshire provides fantastic optional units which cater for everyone. There is also a unique opportunity the University offers, whereby you can gain an extra qualification on graduation for a one off fee payable by the student. The Higher Diploma in Paralegal Practice is integrated into the LLB undergraduate course and this is a bespoke arrangement that the National Association of Licensed Paralegals (NALP) have decided with the University of Bedfordshire.

The NALP option is not compulsory but offers extra chances of employment and it is an offer that I decided to choose. Opportunities like these are just a small part of how the Faculty of Law help their students gain employment after graduation. So my options for next year will coincide with the NALP programme and this is something I am really looking forward to. 

Another anticipated event coming up that I am very much excited for is for Annual Law Association Ball this Saturday.  We have some fantastic guests coming along, including the Deputy Mayor of Luton and legal professionals from around the UK. 

I cannot wait to blog next week to tell you what a great night it had been!
