Thank you very much for the opportunity to study with ILSPA. I am delighted that I passed the course with a 94% in just 2 months! I relocated to the UK from Zimbabwe in 2023, and having studied Law many years ago at the University of the Western Cape, I was eager to continue pursuing my passion for Law. The course allowed me to choose subjects I was interested in, such as Family Law, and along the way, I developed a keen interest in Conveyancing. The practical assessments were particularly enjoyable. I enrolled with ILSPA to prepare myself for interviews and work under the new legal system. This course has significantly boosted my confidence to pursue a legal career in the UK. The flexibility to complete the course online was especially beneficial given my family commitments. The most valuable part of the course was the practical engagement. The structure required a high attention to detail and a strong understanding of the content to produce the legal forms and documentation. I am grateful for the practical skills I have gained.
I found the course and website easy to navigate and I was able to understand my tests and assignments quickly in order to maximise my time when learning. If I had any queries regarding my assignments, your team got back to me fast and efficiently. This was beneficial as it did not put a stall in my learning and it also left me feeling confident I could handle the task to a high level. I really enjoyed the topics I chose (Civil law, Criminal law and Family Law). The information was easy to read and all the answers to my assignments and tests were in the text. I took the course as I am currently working at a Family Law firm. I was asked if I would like to train as a Legal Secretary for the firm and I said yes! I chose ILSPA as the online learning meant I could fit my studies around my work pattern. The studies have helped massively with my understanding of Family Law and I am putting my knowledge to good use!
I am truly grateful for the opportunity to have studied with ILSPA and for the course that I completed. It has been an enriching experience, and I’m very pleased with what I’ve gained from it. The course was well-structured, the modules were detailed and thorough, providing a solid foundation for legal knowledge, particularly in areas that are essential for my work. The flexibility to study at my own pace was one of the key advantages, allowing me to balance it with my professional responsibilities. As someone who is starting in the legal field (LEGAL DEEDS & SERVICES), I enrolled in the course to broaden my understanding and strengthen my skills, especially in the areas of legal documentation and procedures. The course met my expectations in this regard, offering practical insights and clear guidance on how to approach various legal tasks. I found the content to be highly relevant to my day to day work, and I am confident that the diploma will enhance my professional standing moving forward. I appreciate the support you provided throughout the course, and the resources available were invaluable. Thank you once again for excellent learning experience.
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.
