This Diploma Legal Studies and Practice (Level 7 QQI Special Purpose Award) allows students to complete the programme over one or two academic years on a part-time basis, attending lectures either on-campus or online.
The course is validated by QQI and recognised by the Irish Institute of Legal Executives (IILEx).
The Diploma in Legal Studies and Practice course has been designed with input from past graduates, members of our legal academic team, employers in legal practice and from the Irish Institute of Legal Executives (IILEx). It is also the only programme of study in Ireland that is endorsed by IILEx.
Assessment varies from module to module and includes a combination of assignments, examinations, workshops and continuous assessment.
This course will next commence September 2021.
"I found the IILEX course extremely useful in that it provided me with an insight to the legal world and how law operates on a day to day basis. The lecturers are in the legal profession themselves and offer so much support in terms of studying and how you want to progress your career further."
"The Diploma in Legal Studies and Practice I completed at Griffith College Dublin was instrumental in helping me discover that I wanted to become a solicitor. The course taught me not only the theory, and laws within the Irish legal system, but it also gave me a practical understanding of the law. I feel like the DLSP was an incredible experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to become not only a legal executive, but also any future legal professional in the making."
