Benefits of accessing training via PLC

• Many of the training activities are free with a PLC subscription. Where there is a charge, this is often reduced for PLC subscribers.
• The majority of the training we offer counts toward a solicitor's or a barrister's CPD requirements.
• Training courses are presented alongside links to relevant PLC materials (for example, standard documents and practice notes), enabling you to explore the topic in greater detail.
• Regular, appropriate training is an essential element of business risk management and professional development. PLC is a cost-effective method of managing legal risk and developing skills.
