Legal qualification routes are evolving.
The 2026 changes to Solicitor Apprenticeship funding have created new pathways and considerations for employers and aspiring legal professionals. Join us for a practical discussion on the routes available, including the Solicitor and Chartered Legal Executive Apprenticeships, and how the funding and eligibility landscape has shifted.
We'll explore what this means in practice, how work-based learning can develop future legal professionals and how Damar's approach to the CILEX Apprenticeship provides clear line of sight to cross-qualification as a solicitor, for apprentices of all ages.
Our panel:
- Jonathan Bourne, CEO, Damar Training
- Fiona Anthony, former apprentice employer and non-practising solicitor
- Megan Chant, Chartered Legal Executive apprentice at nplaw.
They'll share practical insights on navigating different pathways, developing legal talent and progressing towards professional qualification. This session is for legal employers, HR and L&D professionals, and paralegals exploring their routes to qualification.
Whether you're building talent in your organisation or charting your own path, this webinar will help you understand the options available.
