I was very happy with the course you provided and found it very insightful and fulfilling. It allowed me to choose subjects I was interested in for the advanced level. I got a good basis of knowledge for each area of law and thoroughly enjoyed the Family Law assessments which gave me practical knowledge. The criminal law assignments helped me to understand the defence of law better and how better to apply it to a case. I was also very happy with the feedback and that feedback was provided. Thank you very much for the opportunity of doing this course. I intend to use it well in Legal Practice.
Thank you for your support during my studies. I have always been interested in law, but never took the leap to enrol on any courses. I have completed a bachelor's degree in another field abroad, where I studied through distance learning, and this was the perfect option to complement my studies without having to complete an additional degree. The payment options were very affordable which helped me a lot. I liked the different study options as well and thought that I would try enrolling for the distance learning course, because of family commitments at home. I thought this might have limitations if you didn’t attend classes, but there was a help icon when I needed assistance. I liked the way the study materials were structured, where it made the topics clearer to understand and enjoyable. The feedback from assessors was very helpful. I also like the student resources available for additional reading and advice.
I found the course affordable and the site was pretty straightforward and had all the resources I needed for my studies. I chose to do this course because I found that it is recognised globally even here in the Cayman Islands and that is how I became familiar with it. I'm doing a bachelor's degree majoring in Accounting at a local university but at the same time, this degree is not equipping me with immediate skills that I can get a job with. After being to countless interviews for entry level roles including those for Legal Secretaries, I was being told that I do not have the experience needed. Long story short, I decided on this course as most recruiters recommended it and most job advert I saw either asked for experience or this qualification. I am happy I choose this course and I am patiently waiting for my certification. I have no doubt that I will eventually get a job in this field. Keep up the good work!
I chose to study with ILSPA because I wanted to achieve a recognised qualification as a Legal Secretary and the Diploma Course provided this. I had previously trained as a Legal Secretary in 1997, taking courses with a local business college in Litigation, Conveyancing and audio typing, but knew my skills and knowledge in these areas were now out of date. The ILSPA course provided me with the flexibility to study for a recognised qualification at my own pace and to update my skills and knowledge. I have really enjoyed the courses and found them to be very informative. I am also very grateful for the support and advice given by the ILSPA team throughout. Many thanks again for all of the support from ILSPA during the course.
I just wanted to say a big thank you. I really appreciate how you have organised the course work, the assignments, the information and instructions, etc. It has made my study 10 times more interesting and enjoyable. I wish every school was operating like you. Very interesting and enjoyable, I felt supported throughout the whole course. I have very little experience, but this qualification has kick-started my career.
