Specialist Certificate in Legal Leadership

To be considered for entry into this course, you must: - Have completed a Bachelor of Laws degree (LLB) (AQF7) or a Juris Doctor (JD) (AQF9) or equivalent, leading to admission to legal practice. And - Have two years of documented relevant experience. Or - Have completed a bachelor degree (AQF7) or equivalent in any discipline. And - Have five years of documented relevant experience. Relevant experience for this course may include legal roles such as a lawyer, solicitor, advocate, attorney, counsel, barrister, magistrate, judge's associate or legal practice executive. Relevant experience is measured in full-time years but may be completed within a part-time equivalent timeframe. Where degree levels are referenced, levels align with the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF). Applications are assessed against these standards. Where our admission criteria includes a minimum Weighted Average Mark (WAM) and/or specific subject criteria, these are based on University of Melbourne grades and subjects. If you've studied elsewhere, we'll assess your relevant prior studies and equivalent grades. Your final WAM may be adjusted depending on your previous institution's accreditation, subject grading, and pass marks.
