By India Today Education Desk : The Law Training Centre in the UK has launched a new initiative, the ‘Open To All Scholarship’, aimed at making legal education accessible to all, regardless of their financial status or geographical location. This scholarship, which was launched on August 1, 2023, is open to international students, including those from India.
The scholarship aims to remove financial barriers and make legal qualifications accessible to people from diverse backgrounds. It covers various courses, offering a grant of up to ã1,558 (Rs 164 lakhs) depending on the chosen course. The application process is simple, with no fixed deadlines, reflecting the centre’s commitment to inclusivity.
A GLOBAL OPPORTUNITY
The ‘Open To All Scholarship’ is a significant step towards democratising legal education. As Eve Dullabh, co-founder and director of Education at Law Training Centre, stated, “We’ve personally experienced how invasive a lot of scholarship and bursary applications are, which can be discouraging, so we wanted to take a completely different approach.”
This initiative provides an opportunity for international learners, including those residing in India, to study law remotely and qualify to practice law in the UK. This move comes after the signing of a memorandum of understanding between the Bar Council of India, The Bar Council of England and Wales, and the Law Society of England and Wales to strengthen cooperation and legal exchange.
