Legal Ethics
Legal Ethics Bridging Course
Any student seeking to be admitted as a legal practitioner in NSW after 31 December 1999 is required to have completed as part of their law degree a course in Legal Ethics approved by the Legal Profession Admission Board (LPAB). The College has, until, recently, provided a “bridging course ” to assist students who have not completed ethics as part of their undergraduate degree. However, this course is no longer accredited by the NSW LPAB , as of 31 December 2008.
As such, if you need to complete an ethics program in order to be admitted , visit the LPAB website for a list of approved programs and institutions in NSW:

However, if you need to complete an Ethics course for any other reason , please contact Donna Read on 02 9223 7111 or dread@collaw.edu.au as you can still enrol in this program.
If you are uncertain about whether you need to complete this requirement, please contact:
