Has whet my appetite to further my career within the legal industry
May I take this opportunity to express how much I thoroughly enjoyed this course, which was made even more enjoyable by my Course Tutor - Seamus Ryan.
After 18 years since leaving school and working full time I was a little bit anxious as to whether I would be able to get my head back round to learning and studying, this to my delight was not the case. I found the course very informative, extremely enjoyable (even with the achievement tests) and has whet my appetite to further my career within the legal industry and will be looking to enrol on a paralegal course in the near future, above all Seamus has instilled in me the desire to further my qualifications.
Seamus has been extremely helpful and full of advice whenever needed and never let you feel you were taking any of his time, he really has made me want to learn more and to his credit I cannot thank him. I am so pleased I enrolled on this course and thankful I had such a wonderful tutor who made my late Wednesday evenings (after a day at work) all the more worthwhile.
Thank you once again for running this course it has made a change to the outlook of my future for the better.

I am so proud of myself for taking up this course
I am so proud of myself for taking up this course, something I wanted to do for such a long time. Am not sure of the outcome, nevertheless it has been a great journey.
It took longer than anticipated but it was expected seeing that I have two young ones who are dependant on me, one of which is disabled.
Upon my results, I look forward to approaching a few solicitors firms for work experience in September.
I look forward to encouraging a few of my friends to take on the course.

Extremely useful
I would like to inform you that I found this course extremely useful. I already work in a Solicitors firm as a secretary and have found that I now have a greater knowledge and understanding of law which helps with my day to day duties. I greatly enjoyed the course and am now inspired to take my career further.

I really like the Dedicated online magazine
I would like to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed doing the course. I have been a Legal Secretary for many years and having already taken an 'O'level in law several years ago I was not sure whether I would be repeating myself. However, I have learned a lot from this course and I believe it will be very beneficial to my career in the future.
It is good to know that being a member of the Institute of Legal Secretaries gives you a back up if you need it in the future and also, the Jobs Board is very useful. I really like the Dedicated online magazine and have found some of the articles very interesting.
Thank you for your assistance throughout the course.

Informative, clear, concise and enjoyable
I would like to thank everyone involved in administering this course as I received all five of the units extremely quickly which allowed me to progress through the course at a fairly rapid pace. All of the instructions were clear and I feel that the work was balanced out well throughout the course over the five units. Overall, the course was informative, clear, concise and enjoyable.

Recommend the course to every upcoming secretary as a necessary tool
The course has been quite resourceful and interesting. The course contents are well researched to prepare individuals for a future challenge without any fear.
I believe having undergone this programme, I am ready to face any challenges as a secretary in a legal industry. It has indeed widened the horizon of my exposure to the legal profession, having been the missing factor hitherto existing in my academic attainments.
I, therefore, make bold to recommend the course to every upcoming secretary as a necessary tool to face the global dynamism expected in the field of secretarial practice and to enable them to compete favourably in the labour market.

Fun as well as educational
May I take this opportunity to thank you for all your help on this course. I found it extremely interesting and enjoyable and it has convinced me that this is the career path which I now wish to follow. (Amanda) You were a truly inspirational tutor and I am very grateful to you for making Wednesday evenings fun as well as educational!

The layout of the course is very easy to use
I have enjoyed doing this course and feel I have learnt a lot about a Legal Secretaries Work. Becoming familiar with the necessary forms I am sure will be of benefit, if I can find work in a Solicitors. Also the language used is different from other offices and again is helpful to become tuned into.
The layout of the course is very easy to use and it has been good to know that help has been available if needed.
Being a long distance course has made it easier for me as I have been able to do the work when it has been convenient to me, even if it has been just an odd spare half an hour.
I look forward to receiving my results and may take advantage of the Institutes offer with writing CV's and applying for work.
