Training

Caseworker delivering immigration training

In today’s advice sector things can move fast and it is important for all advisers to be up to date with the changing needs of the public as a result of new legislation and guidance.  The Law Centre’s role is to help advisers manage these changes through delivering timely training.

We are fully aware of the level of commitment, compassion and professionalism of the people who work within the advice sector. We want to encourage and foster this dedication through helping advisers keep up to date with the law. To keep our training as up to date and effective as possible, we need to keep our finger on the pulse of current demand.

We are asking people who work within the advice sector, or those whose job includes advice, to give us their views and some information regarding possible future training.

This will help us to tailor our training programme to fulfil the needs of the adviser and therefore the public.
