College Diploma - Law Clerk (LCK)

Seneca Polytechnic - Seneca at York Campus

The Law Clerk (LCK)  two-year diploma program will prepare students to work under the supervision of a lawyer in a fast-paced legal environment. In addition to learning about legal principles and ethics, they will obtain practical, hands-on training that will equip them for success in the workplace. The curriculum focuses on real estate, corporate and commercial, litigation, wills and estates, and family law with an emphasis on the technological skills needed in these practice areas.  

Taught by lawyers and law clerks with excellent professional experience, the program will offer students opportunities to engage with current law clerks, leading industry experts, and legal recruiters through workshops, law firm tours, court visits, career preparation events, field placement, and various speaking engagements.

Fluency in English is critical to student success in the program and the legal environment, and there is a strong focus on communicating effectively from the beginning of the program to graduation.
