The College of Law has announced details of a new strategic collaboration with the Singapore Institute of Legal Education (SILE), with a view to establishing a permanent presence on the ground in the country.

As a part of the agreement, which was first reported by Legal Week in March, the College and SILE – a statutory body with the remit of maintaining and improving the standards of legal education – will jointly develop new courses for aspiring lawyers as well as continuing professional development (CPD) programmes for qualified lawyers in Singapore and the surrounding region.
