- Lawyers professional development:
Geeklawyer blogged a while back about what a pain CPD is (here):
The main practical issue with CPD is the considerable expense of the courses and the fact that one needs to take a day or so out of fee earning in order to do the course. Since blogging that article Geeklawyer discovered an excellent concept: the online CPD course from the Legal Practitioner. No longer need one waste days away from work: just do your CPD hours online!! The courses are accredited by the Bar Council, the Law Society and the Institute of Legal Executives so they all count towards your requirements. The courses themselves are varied and genuinely useful. The are also very very good value: a years subscription is merely £400 + VAT or just £40 + VAT for a single hour CPD course. Good value.
(Geeklawyer is not being paid to say this, and uses the courses himself.)
