About this workshop

A hands-on workshop for the April 2027 SQE2 sitting. Cohorts are deliberately small so that every participant practises each skill live and receives feedback against the published assessment criteria. Sessions are recorded for participants only; recordings, slides and model materials stay available for 45 days after the final session. Feedback is educational and is not an official SQE mark.
