Event Detail

Dona Chung

Head of Student Recruitment & Marketing (Hong Kong), The University of Law

With the implementation of the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE) in the 2021/22 academic year, the solicitor qualifying framework in the UK is replaced by a more examination-based regime. Graduates who would like to qualify as a solicitor will now need to pass the SQE, and obtain two years of Qualifying Work Experience (QWE). Under the new system, requirements of Qualifying Work Experience (QWE) are slightly relaxed, which can now include time spent on placement during a law degree, working as a paralegal and a few other circumstances.

In the initial years of the implementation of the SQE, a transitional arrangement is open to students who have started their law degrees (like LLB, GDL, etc) in September 2021 or before, under which the option of studying the Legal Practice Course (LPC) remains open to them!

In this special advisory session, the admissions representative from The University of Law will provide individual advices for existing law students, to help them pick the best training route.

• (2-Year & 3-Year Programmes)

Founded in 1876, the University of Law has an excellent and unique reputation in professional legal training in the UK.

Today, the University of Law is one of the most established law schools in the UK and an education partner of the leading global law firms such as Clifford Chance and Linklaters, providing a bespoke master’s degree for Clifford Chance and Linklaters.

Key Postgraduate & Undergraduate Programmes (designed for the SQE framework)

With the implementation of the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE) in the 2021/22 academic year, the solicitor qualifying framework in the UK is replaced by a more examination-based regime. Graduates who would like to qualify as a solicitor will now need to pass the SQE, and obtain two years of Qualifying Work Experience (QWE):

Undergraduate + Passing the SQE + Obtaining Two Years of QWE

Under the new system, requirements of Qualifying Work Experience (QWE) are sligtly relaxed, which can now include time spent on placement during a law degree, working as a paralegal and a few other circumstances. Such a change means that, for paralegals with some experience, upgrading themselves as a solicitor is now much less difficult. For prospective law students – especially those who might hesitate for the uncertainties of securing a Training Contract – a dead-end in their pursuit to become a lawyer has also become less likely!

In addition to undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, Middlesex University also provides foundation programmes in the form of a Foundation Year. Designed for students whose grades fall slightly short of the requirements of undergraduate year one, a Foundation Year is an additional year attached to a standard 3-year undergraduate degree (students will be issued a visa that covers the whole 4-year period). Compared with a broad-learning University Foundation Course, in the Foundation Year students will focus on modules directly relevant to their disciplines and enjoy higher certainty in progression.

Middlesex University currently offers the Foundation Year in areas such as Art & Design (including Fashion Design, Media, Visual Arts, Performing Arts, etc), Communication & Media, Business, Biological Sciences, Computer Sciences, Law, Sport Sciences and more!

Student Recruitment Manager APAC

In the Seminar, admissions representatives from BPP University will introduce their Nursing programmes, covering areas such as course structure, facilities, entry & interview requirements, placement arrangement, professional qualifications, graduate prospects and more!

How do you become a Registered Nurse in the UK?

The Nursing profession in the UK is divided into Adult Nursing, Children’s Nursing and Mental Health Nursing. Students are required to complete an approved degree programme, before they can register with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) as a registered nurse. In this section, the speakers will provide an overview of the Nursing profession, introducing the professional divisions in nursing, professional responsibilities and ethics, day-to-day works of a nurse, as well as common teaching modules and opportunities in clinical placement during your studies.

Clinical Placement: How does it actually work?

The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) requires that students complete a minimum of 2,300 hours of Clinical Placement as part of their training. These Clinical Placement usually take place in public hospital settings under local NHS Trusts. How does the arrangement actually work? In which semester do these placements usually happen? Do students still need to attend classes when they’re doing their placement? How would the transport and accommodaiton be arranged during placement?

Working in the UK after graduation: A shortage occupation

Nurses is currently one of UK’s shortage occupations. Employment prospect of nursing graduates is therefore extremely well! In BPP University, employment rate is as high as 100%! In this section, the speakers will provide insight on the possibility for international students to work in the UK. The speakers will provide an overview of the employment prospects of her Nursing students and also introduce the career support services available in the University.

Coming back to Hong Kong to practise: How do you become a Registered Nurse in Hong Kong?

UK-registered nurses are eligible to sit the Nursing Council Licensing Examination in Hong Kong. Students can become a registered nurse after they’ve successfully passed the licensing exam. However, the highly fluctuating pass rates of the licensing exam do mean that it’s not an easy exam to pass! In this section, we will share more statistics about the licensing exam, so that students and parents will have a better understanding about coming back to Hong Kong to practise as a nurse.

Programme introduction:

Nursing is available in BPP University in two main undegraduate programmes which are suitable for HKDSE, GCE A-levels and IB graduates. The speakers will provide an overview about these programmes, covering areas such as course structure, entry & interview arrangements (What can you do if you didn’t study Biology in school?), exams & other assessments, etc.

  • BSc (Hons) Adult Nursing Study Location: London, or Doncaster
  • BSc (Hons) Mental Health Nursing Study Location: Doncaster

These Nursing programmes are all approved by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC).

University for the Creative Arts (UCA) is a specialist art university in the UK, which teaches in diverse areas of visual arts (such as Animation, Architecture, Fashion Design, Film Production, Interior Design, Photography and more), with new ventures into new media such as Computer Games Design, Creative Coding & Technology.

University for the Creative Arts (UCA) has three main campuses located in cities in the south of England. With London within reach of a 30- to 60-minute train ride, students enjoy the great exposure to exhibitions and galleries in London, without the burden of London’s cost of living!

  • UCA Canterbury – Just an easy one-hour train journey from London and home to three universities, the historic city of Canterbury is a superb destination for international students! Fine Art, Architecture, Interior Architecture are particularly notable courses in UCA Canterbury. Other visual art courses include Illustration & Animation, Graphic Design, Creative Computing and many more!
  • UCA Epsom – Epsom is home to the unique UCA Business School for the Creative Industries, which as its name suggests offers a range of business courses tailormade for the creative industries, such as Advertising, Digital Marketing, Event & Promotion Management, Business Management and more. For creative courses, there are the options of Fashion Design, Fashion Promotion as well as Graphic Design. With access to creative workshops and studios, UCA Epsom is likely to be especially attractive for business-minded students with a strong passion for the creative industries, but might not want to pursue a career as a full-time artist or creator. You can perhaps be a marketer with strong creative skills instead!
  • UCA Farnham – Located in the traditional craft town of Farnham, UCA Farnham is the largest campus in terms of student population and course portfolio! These include a range of craft-based courses such as Fine Art, Ceramics & Glass, Textile Design, Jewellery & Silversmithing and more. There are also a wide range of visual art courses like Film Production, Animation, Digital Media, Games Arts & Technology, Graphic Design, Illustration, Interior Architecture, as well as Music Composition & Technology and an Acting course designed for the screen. Such wide range of courses is also why UCA Farnham is where the International Art Foundation is based – to allow students to get a taste of the widest range of specialisms!

Granted full university status in 2008, University for the Creative Arts (UCA) was formed with a merger between a few historical art schools with over 160 years of teaching experience. Over the years UCA graduates have worked in different sectors of the creative industries and have achieved international acclaim. They include a number of Oscar-winning animators, film director Gareth Edwards (director of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and Godzilla), illustrator Martin Handford (creator of Where’s Wally?), animation artist Mark Baker (creator of Peppa Pig), jewellery designer Stephen Webster, as well as fashion designer Karen Millen.

Johnson subsequently passed the MCHK Licensing Examination and is currently working in Queen Mary Hospital and training as an Orthopedist.

Like every successful stories, Dr Johnson’s the education journey looks like smooth sailing now, but in reality there were many challenges and it involved a lot of hard work from Johnson himself, as well as support and assistance from teachers and parents to succeed. The Mentorship Programme therefore comes about to assist Hong Kong’s aspirsing medical school applicants. Hopefully Johnson’s own experience from study and work will make the process easier!

Eligibilty: Just 15 Places in the 1st Cohort

The Mentorship programme comes with 15 places in its first cohort, and is primarily targeted at students planning to start their Medicine programmes in UK medical schools in September 2024.

Applicants will be selected by Dr Johnson and education consultants from British United, based on their acdemic abilities, extracurricular activities and other learning experience, and other relevant criteria.

  • Target: Students planning to start their Medicine programmes in UK medical schools in September 2024 (ie. students progressing to F.6 in Hong Kong or Year 13 in the UK in September 2023)
  • Academic Requirements: Students must come with outstanding academic records and are taking Chemistry and Biology as their elective subjects in HKDSE, A-levels or IBDP (or other subject combinations that include two science subjects)
  • Application Documents: Students are required to submit school reports from F.4 (or Year 10), predicted grades, certificates and records of extracurricular activities, as well as a 200-word statement on “Why do I want to be a doctor?”
  • Cost: Free-of-charge

How to Apply:

Students are required to submit the official application form and other application documents by 7pm on Friday 23rd June. Simply register your interest via this post to start the process. Our education consultants will contact you individually with the official application form and other guidelines.

Programme Outline:

Each cohort of the Mentorship Programme lasts for roughly a year. It will cover initial preparation for medical school applications, preparation for medical school interviews and other issues related to studying Medicine in the UK.

Activities will be hosted by Dr Johnson and our education consultants and will primarily be conducted in a group setting, so that students can learn from and support each others. Successful applicants will be informed of the exact dates and time of these activities.

UK University & Pathways Seminar How difficult/easy it is for students to progress? How good are the progression rates?

Type: In-Person Seminar
Target: F.4 or above
Location: British United / Attend Virtually

Undergraduate Year One in Top 30 UK universities normally require 544 to 555 in HKDSE, with subject-specific requirement depending on your choices of programmes. If students fall short of such requirement, they can progress through International Year One or University Foundation Courses. These programmes accept entry at 433 to 222 in HKDSE and enable qualified students to progress onto Year 2 and Year 1 of an undergraduate programme in Top 30 UK universities respectively. Students aiming for top universities and highly-competitive subjects such as medicine and actuarial sciences, however, will benefit from the 1-Year A-levels which also allows them to apply to universities in Hong Kong through the Non-Jupas route.

In the seminar, our education consultants will introduce these four options for HKDSE students. Content includes university options, subject options, entry requirements, plus the procedures and important dates of UCAS.

Content Highlights

  • How does UCAS work? What are the important dates?
  • How to make best use of the five application quotas in your UCAS application?
  • Is it possible to have the sixth and the seventh quota?
  • Tips on writing a winning personal statement.
  • English Requirements and Different Types of IELTS: What’s IELTS for UKVI (Academic)?
  • Options of university and academic disciplines in pathway programmes.
  • University Foundation Courses that accept applications from F.5 students.
  • The option of One-Year A-levels and a brief analysis of Non-Jupas admission data.

This Week’s Special Guest & Topic: How does the “Guaranteed Progression” Mechanism Work? How Good are the Progression Rates?

After the first section of our UK University & Pathways Seminar, students and parents will have a general idea about the higher education options available in the UK. Now this Special section will bring you a few real universities and course options as further reference!

In this section, an admissions representative of University of Exeter’s and University of East Anglia’s University Foundation & International Year One programmes will explain how the promise of “Guaranteed Progression” works, share records of progression rates in the past and other useful information! They will also introduce the University Foundation and International Year One programmes run in partnership with their university partners, covering areas such as progression degrees, entry and progression requirements, course structure, etc.

INTO University Partnerships is the education provider of on-campus pathway programmes of many universities including University of Exeter (13), University of Manchester (24), University of East Anglia (27), Newcastle University (33) and Manchester Metropolitan University (60). Both options of International Year One and University Foundation Courses are available, and come with very diverse subject choices that include Business, Physiotherapy, Architecture, Law, Psychology, Engineering and many more!

How to become a Lawyer in Hong Kong and the UK? An Admissions Seminar in Law by University of Reading & the University of Law

How to become a Lawyer in Hong Kong and the UK? An Admissions Seminar in Law by University of Reading & the University of Law

Type: Virtual Seminar
Target: HKDSE, GCE A-levels Graduates, University Students and Working Adults
Location: British United / Attend Virtually

Seminar Theme

In UK’s lawyer training system, there is an unique division of labour between traditional universities and professional law schools! At undergraduate level, the vast majority of law students would study their law degree (LLB (Hons) Law) at a traditional university, after which they would continue their professional training in professional law schools like the University of Law – quite unlike the system in Hong Kong where traditional universities would cover both undergraduate and postgraduate training!

Founded in 1876, the University of Law has an excellent and unique reputation in professional legal training in the UK. In its early years, it was the lawyer training school of the Law Society of England and Wales, and later became the first private university granted degree-awarding power by the UK government! Today, the University of Law is one of the most established law schools in the UK. In recent years, the University of Law has formed partnership with traditional universities like University of Reading, to deliver its PGDL, LPC and SQE courses on-campus, so that students can enjoy the the range of campus facilities and campus life in a traditional university.

In this special seminar, University of Reading and the University of Law will introduce the education system in law, from undergraduate to postgraduate, in order to help students and parents understand how students can qualify as a lawyer in Hong Kong and the United Kingdom, and explain how different courses may be better for students in different career stages.

Dona Chung

Head of Student Recruitment & Marketing (Hong Kong), The University of Law

Together with Sharon Sinclair-Graham (Associate Professor from School of Law, University of Reading), Dona Chung (Head of Student Recruitment & Marketing from the University of Law) will provide details about the following undergraduate and postgraduate courses, covering areas such as course structure, entry requirements, tuition fees, study locations and the steps it takes after the course to qualify as a lawyer.

Studying an Undergraduate Law Degree

🔔 Presented by University of Reading

A standard UK law degree (LLB (Hons) Law) is three years in length, while some universities offer programmes that come with stronger elements for different jurisdictions and legal topics. After completing the LLB (Hons) Law, students will need to pass the PCLL Conversion Examinations before they’re eligible to return to Hong Kong to continue their professional training via the PCLL. If students were to train in the UK, they would have to complete either the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE) (training as a solicitor) and a BPC (training as a barrister).

In this section, Sharon Sinclair-Graham (Associate Professor from School of Law, University of Reading) will start with an overview of their law degrees (LLB (Hons) Law), covering areas such as course structure, overseas exchange opportunities, entry requirements, tuition fees and more!

Training as a Barrister: How do you enhance your chances of securing a pupillage?

🔔 Presented by The University of Law from here

If you’d like to train as a barrister, Bar Practice Course (BPC) is the essential postgraduate training course for you. After the BPC, graduates have to complete a pupillage, before they can register as a barrister. How can students increase their chances in securing a pupillage? Can students undertake their pupillage in Hong Kong? Dona from the University of Law will answer these and other frequently asked questions in the talk!

Training as a Solicitor: Understanding the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE)

With the implementation of the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE) in the 2021/22 academic year, the solicitor qualifying framework in the UK is replaced by a more examination-based regime. Graduates who would like to qualify as a solicitor will now need to pass the SQE, and obtain two years of Qualifying Work Experience (QWE):

Undergraduate + Passing the SQE + Obtaining Two Years of QWE

Under the new system, requirements of Qualifying Work Experience (QWE) are sligtly relaxed, which can now include time spent on placement during a law degree, working as a paralegal and a few other circumstances. For prospective law students – especially those who might hesitate for the uncertainties of securing a Training Contract – a dead-end in their pursuit to become a lawyer has become less likely!

On the surface, the framework is simple enough. But in practice, what skills and abilibites are SQE1 and SQE2 testing respectively? Would it mainly be multiple-choice questions, or would it also involve longer form questions too? And how important is the oral component? In this section, the University will show you how the SQE works and what courses there are to help you succeed.

Returning to Hong Kong: How do I Qualify for the PCLL? Can a UK lawyer practise law in Hong Kong?

After completing the LLB (Hons) Law, students will need to pass the PCLL Conversion Examinations before they’re eligible to return to Hong Kong to continue their professional training via the PCLL. Alternatively, students can train as a UK lawyer, and return to practise as a Foreign Lawyer in Hong Kong after obtaining certain years of overseas experience.

If students are considering returning to Hong Kong, where should they pay attention to? How can students better prepare for the PCLL Conversion Examinations? How can students increase their chances for PCLL? Will the status as a UK lawyer offer advantages in a legal career in Hong Kong? The University of Law will share some of their student cases, to provide more insights for students and parents.
