[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nah, the two year traineeship (you are paid a real, albeit moderate, salary; not an unpaid internship or anything) is just like the first two years working as an associate in the US; it’s not education in the sense we are talking about, so don’t call it that. The UK is way faster and easier; OK to admit that. The US is the only place where law and medicine are not first degrees. It is costly and absurd.[/quote] Agree that it’s not education like being in law school or college but there is a lot of actual training (specific courses and programs), but more importantly there is the opportunity to spend 6 months working in 4 different areas of the law. It is called training because that is what it is - a paid apprenticeship, with on the job mandatory training. And it’s mandatory as part of becoming a lawyer - just going to law school doesn’t qualify you for anything [/quote]
