The Linklaters Law & Business School

As educational innovators, we need to provide the best training and development in the world. If we are to work on the most challenging assignments and deliver consistently excellent results for the most demanding clients, we must have expert lawyers who are at the very top of their game. What's more, professional development is a moving target. The global economy is changing so fast that each new generation of lawyer needs to learn new skills and apply new types of thinking. This makes our work exhilarating, but it demands a dynamic approach to learning and development.

Learning through your career

Our approach is truly unique. The Linklaters Law & Business School is an entirely new framework for career-long continuous professional development. We have integrated business skills and technical knowledge in one holistic syllabus that gives people the mix of expertise they need to thrive in a changing world. Now we can guarantee that our lawyers will, at every stage of their career, receive the same high-quality learning experience, wherever they work.

Quality and credibility

Our ambition is to create an integrated learning structure that has currency and credibility on a global stage, inside and beyond Linklaters. It's the result of detailed consultation with clients as well as colleagues and, uniquely, it is led by a dedicated advisory board of business leaders and academics. We also design and deliver the syllabus in partnership with institutions ranging from the College of Law to the École des Hautes Études Commerciales de Paris (HEC Paris).

What will you gain?

We will give you the knowledge and confidence you need to operate as a trusted business partner rather than a mere technical adviser. We will also give you the tools to manage your professional growth and achieve your own career objectives. There are milestone programmes for every stage of development from new-lawyer orientation to partner induction; the syllabus is consistent in quality, content and delivery across the world.
