Structure:
The structure of the course is divided between theory and practice, with half of the focus towards
academic learning and half of the course focused on real case working so that the student starts to
understand the complexities of immigration law by way of actual casework.
Students will be able to shadow solicitors and paralegals as they work to solve complex immigration
problems of the clients of Solicitors.
Shadowing solicitors and barristers in court will also be a part of this course so that the students
are exposed to the inner workings of the legal system and develop the confidence to work on
immigration appeals.
The venue of this course will be inside the office of one of the leading immigration law firms of the
UK.
Students will be exposed to a multitude of legal problems which will unfold in front of them as part
of this course. Regardless of the educational background of the students, they will develop to be
able to work as paralegals working on immigration cases.
This intensive course will be taught for about 40 hours a week between Monday to Sunday on site and
remotely. Students will be expected to practically apply the concepts they learn from Mr Salam in
real-life immigration problems.
All students will have the opportunity to exclusively shadow Mr Salam as he solves complex
immigration problems. Students may also be invited to attend clients with Mr Salam.
Trainers:
Training will be conducted by Sheikh Asif Salam, Solicitor, founder and principal of Salam & Co
Solicitors Ltd., Salam Immigration and Salam Law . He will be assisted by colleagues.
There will also be outside speakers-Barristers, Solicitors and other Immigration Experts.
Evaluation:
There will be monthly tests and performance evaluation. Those who do not pass will redo failed parts
and complete only as much as they can cover in the time available. Those who do not pass the final
passing out will get one more opportunity to take extra training and attempt to pass the test again.
Success!
Successful students will be classified as Certified Immigration Paralegals (CIP) - they will be able
to work as a paralegal in any immigration law firm in the United Kingdom.
Job Guarantee!
If the student is unable to get a job offer of £20k per annum in 60 days after the completion of this
course then the entire fees of the course will be refunded. We are confident in our ability to
produce talented and employable paralegals.
