Our BVC is highly regarded by the profession and one of eight approved worldwide by the Bar Standards Board. Studying the BVC at BPP will allow you to concentrate on developing the essential barristerial skills of drafting, opinion writing, advocacy, conference and negotiation. These skills will be refined using groups as small as six students alongside practising barristers, who will act as your opponents in mock trials and final assessments.
Study full or part-time.
