Modes of study
To offer you flexibility to balance your studies with work, family and personal commitments, BPP offers more study options over where and how you study than any other provider:
- full-time
- one year distance learning (up to twenty-four days of contact time)
- part-time Saturday (alternate Saturdays)
- part-time one evening per week
- part-time two evenings per week
- part-time day (one morning per week)
- part-time distance learning (up to twelve days of contact time per year)
If your circumstances change after registration you can switch between modes and you can even personalise your timetable during the core teaching period following induction, for example you could crunch your attendance into two or three days, go for morning or afternoon classes or do the entire programme online watching lectures at times to suit you and logging into remote tutorials at scheduled times.
Two start dates a year and the opportunity to complete the part-time GDL in just 18 months
You can start in January* or September. Both options take nine months full-time, but if you start the part-time GDL in January 2010 you will finish in June 2011 (just 18 months!) in time to start the LPC or BPTC (formerly BVC) in September of that same year.
The GDL is available in Leeds, London (Holborn & Waterloo) and Manchester.
We also offer support classes for the distance learning GDL in Cambridge, Dublin, Liverpool and Newcastle. You can take advantage of one seminar per month in Dublin, Liverpool and Newcastle, and one per fortnight in Cambridge.
For information on each individual study option please refer to the Essential Programme Guide.
