Extended Diploma in Law (UK)

Extended Diploma in LAW

The ATHE Level 5 Extended Diploma in Law is a 120-credit Ofqual regulated qualification and is the equivalent level to the second year of a university degree.

This qualification has been designed for learners who wish to progress to university and, when taken in combination with the ATHE Level 4 Extended Diploma in Law, allows learners to progress onto an LLB top-up degree programme (the final year of university).

This is a core qualification available to existing and interested centres of ATHE.

Taught Units / Modules:

Year 1 (at CAS)

• Contract Law – 30 CTS
• Criminal Law – 30 CTS
• Legal methods – 30 CTS
• Public Law – 30 CTS

Upon completion of the 1^st year, students will achieve L4 Extended Diploma in Law, awarded by ATHE and can progress to 2^nd year. 

Year 2 (at CAS)

• Equity and Trusts – 30 CTS
• EU Law – 30 CTS
• Land Law – 30 CTS

Upon successful completion of Level 4 and 5, students can join De Montfort University for LLB (Hons) Top-Up, Level 6 to achieve the full degree.
