The T Level Technical Qualification in Legal Services will start in September 2023.  \nT Levels will combine classroom theory and practical learning, and are made up of the following:  \n• Technical Qualification: the substantial component of your course.  \n• Industry placement: of at least 315 hours (approximately 45 days) with an employer to make sure you have authentic experience of the workplace.  \nThe Technical Qualification (TQ) is the main classroom-based element of the T Level. During your two-year course, you will learn the core knowledge that underpins the sector, and you will also develop occupationally specific skills that will allow you to enter skilled employment within a specific occupation.  \nWhat is the legal services industry?  \nIn the UK the legal sector is worth approximately £60 billion, with over 12,000 organisations and just under 21 million employees, plus approximately 15,000 selfemployed barristers.

In an ever-changing environment, they are leading the way in transforming how international businesses operate. Roles vary within the profession; from small high street legal firms to largecorporate firms, local authorities, social welfare, and criminal justice. All careers in legal services require good communication skills, time management, attention to detail, and an ability to analyse the law.  \nWho is this Technical Qualification for?  \nThis Technical Qualification can only be taken as part of a T Level course and is not available as a stand-alone qualification. It is for post-16 students and is ideal if you are intending to progress directly to employment within the legal services sector in roles such as a business assistant in a legal services function, EO Caseworker, a legal services related apprenticeship or to further studies in legal services.  \nWhat does the Technical Qualification cover?  \nThe content is split into a core component that has been created for this T Level Technical Qualification in Legal Services and a choice of one of two occupational specialisms. The specialisms are:  \n• Legal Services Assistant Business, Finance and Employment  \n• Legal Services Assistant Crime, Criminal Justice and Social Welfare.  \nThe core component provides a broad understanding of the legal services industry and covers the following topics:  \n• The business environment  \n• Careers  \n• Regulation  \n• Professionalism and ethics  \n• Security and risk  \n• Equality, diversity and inclusion  \n• Professional services  \n• Fundamentals of law  \n• Fundamentals of financial accounting  \n• Technology  \n• Data driven innovation/analytics and design thinking  \n• Research skills  \n• Project/change management and administration  \n• The legal services sector.  \nThe core component will be assessed by two exams and an employer set project.  \nYour choice of occupational specialism will allow you to develop the relevant skills in preparation for your career in the legal services sector. The occupational specialism is assessed by a project that is created in conjunction with employers. The content covers topics specific to that aspect of the legal services sector, as follows:  \nLegal Services Assistant Business, Finance and Employment  \n• Civil  \n• Civil Process and Dispute Resolution  \n• Employment Law  \n• Business, Finance Law and Insolvency  \nLegal Services Assistant Crime, Criminal Justice and Social Welfare.  \n• Crime  \n• Criminal Justice System  \n• Welfare Law  \nAs part of this Technical Qualification, you will develop digital, literacy and numeracy skills relevant to legal services , which will also be valuable in supporting progression in other areas.
