Applied Law (BTEC)

Students studying BTEC Applied Law will take on a more practical approach to studying Law and gain an understanding of the work and skills involved in legal careers, such as Legal Executives and Paralegals.

The course includes mandatory units: Dispute Solving in the Legal System, Understanding Law Making and Aspects of Legal Liability. These give learners an introduction to the court structure – both civil and criminal, the ways in which Law is made and elements of substantive civil and criminal law in the form of negligence and non-fatal offences to the person.
