Continuing Competence - In 2016 the SRA changed from the annual 16 hours CPD requirement for all solicitors to the Continuing Competence model. Ahead of the SRA undertaking a review of how firms and individual Fee Earners are following these requirements this session will be a reminder of the process of Continuing Competence and individual and firm requirements.

We're building a learning culture for our employees.
At Glaisyers ETL we offer a self-paced learning environment for all our employees.
How do I book a training session?
Simply select a course from our programme detailed above, and we will deliver this course to you live in-house or online. You will receive an email confirmation once your booking has been successful.
Is staff training mandatory?
Some Compliance Courses will be mandatory for all staff. This will be indicated next to the training topic name with an “M”.
What are my obligations in relation to training?
If you are a Fee Earner please see the section below on Continuing Competence
Continuing Competence
From 1 November 2016, the SRA moved away from 16 hours CPD per year to all Solicitors being required to undertake continuing competence as per SRA guidance. Solicitors are now required to reflect on the quality of their practice and identify any learning and development needs. You can then address these needs to make sure your knowledge and skills are up to date and that you are competent to practice. Further guidance on this can be found at https://www.sra.org.uk/solicitors/resources/continuing-competence/cpd/continuing-competence-toolkit/
Please use the following form to log any development [insert link] It is each FE’s responsibility to complete their own development plan and these will be needed to be submitted to [name] by [date] in order for a practice certificate to be obtained.
Why am I being asked to attend a course if I am not a Fee Earner?
The SRA dictates that some compliance training is mandatory for all colleagues in a law firm. We will also hold some Glaisyers sessions which we feel everyone will find useful.
What if the session I wish to attend is fully booked?
Each course will have a number of dates to choose from. In the event that all course dates are fully booked, all our sessions will be recorded. Although for some courses attendance in person will be mandatory. Please email janet.westwell@glaisyers.com if you have any further questions.
