At ACLT we're about flexible learning and fast-tracking your qualification. When you register for our CLPQ course you may have the opportunity to apply for exemptions from some of the course components. It's about avoiding repeat study without compromising your learning experience. For example if you have completed the Bar Practice Course or Bar Professional Training Qualification (or Bar Vocational Course), you would be exempt from Year 1 and the Award In Costs Advocacy and could apply for the year 2 Diploma in Costs Law and Practice.
