We’re delighted to share an exciting update to our Key Legal Secretary Skills unit. We’ve introduced a new section on artificial intelligence, designed to equip our Students with the knowledge and confidence to navigate the evolving legal landscape.

At ILSPA, our aim is to equip our Students with both the foundational skills essential to a Legal Secretary role and the insight needed to keep pace with the advancement of technology. This balanced approach ensures they are confident in traditional practices while also gaining a clear understanding of how emerging tools like AI can enhance their work. Whether they are part of a firm that embraces advanced technology or one taking a more conventional path, they will be well-prepared to adapt and contribute effectively in any workplace.

What’s Covered in the AI Section?

  • Understanding AI – An introduction to what AI is and how it's shaping the legal industry

  • AI-Powered Tools – An overview of how AI can support everyday tasks such as email drafting, document production, and diary management

  • Case Study – A practical example of how AI can improve productivity and streamline administrative processes in a legal environment

This new section reflects our commitment to delivering training that is not only relevant today, but also prepares our Students for the future of the legal profession. Whether you are just starting your career or building on existing experience, this update ensures you have the knowledge and skills necessary to thrive in a modern legal practice.

Already Studying With Us?

We have informed our current Students about the new course content via email. If you have already completed the Key Legal Secretary Skills achievement test, there is no need to retake it. Simply review the updated unit to enhance your knowledge.

Professional Development Opportunity 

If you would like to gain up-to-date knowledge in this area without enrolling for the full Legal Secretaries Diploma, our Key Legal Secretary Skills unit is available as a standalone course. This is a great opportunity to develop essential skills and stay informed about the latest developments in legal technology. Whether you're new to the profession or seeking to refresh your expertise, you can study this unit at your own pace and earn a CPD Certificate. You can find more details here.
