Seminars & Events / Forthcoming seminars and courses / Prison Law Course 2010 (5 day course)
> Prison law team
Garden Court North will be holding the next 5 day prison law course in late 2010 / early 2011. Due to the limited delegate numbers that we can accommodate for this course we would like to welcome delegates to register their interest prior to the invitation being released. Please register early interest - see Booking Information below.
Course outline: The 5-day course is aimed at practitioners both new to this area of work and those with experience. We are aware that some practitioners are highly skilled in one area of prison law but may have no experience in others, and therefore no prior knowledge will be presumed.
The course is practical and informative and concentrates on key areas of prison law practice but also provides a general knowledge of the whole subject. It aims to give delegates a solid and comprehensive foundation for best practice when representing prisoners and to provide the training through which practitioners can build or develop a thriving prison law practice.
Fee: £750.00 (+ VAT) per delegate for the 5 day course including lunch and refreshments. Discounts available for group bookings, please ask for details.
Places are limited to 16 delegates per day.
CPD Accreditation: Garden Court North Chambers are accredited by the Solicitors Regulation Authority as authorised CPD providers of Prison Law
Please contact Helen Ray on 0161 236 1840 or hray@gcnchambers.co.uk to register your early interest.
