Above and beyond the SQE, we have partnered with BPP to create a unique and market-leading Plus Programme designed to prepare you for practice as a City lawyer.  \n\n| City Consortium Programme |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| Calendar-alt\u003Cbr>Duration\u003Cbr>12 months\u003Cbr>􀀞\u003Cbr>Start dates*\u003Cbr>September and February | 􀀝\u003Cbr>Locations\u003Cbr>London Holborn\u003Cbr>􀀜\u003Cbr>Delivery\u003Cbr>Face-to-face (with supporting online materials) |\n| *Your sponsor firm will indicate which intake to join. |  |\n| Graduation-cap\u003Cbr>Qualification achieved\u003Cbr>Master of Laws in Legal Practice (Solicitor) (awarded by BPP University) |  |\n\nHow is my programme structured?  \nOn joining the programme, you’ll already have studied either a qualifying law degree or a law foundations course.
