Joe Hughes (Education Director) addressed routes to full membership. This was supported by a very interesting and instructive case study in this area.
Application forms for admission for student membership were distributed to those present that evening and on -line students were also addressed on how to become members.
Discussion
This was informal ,the issue of career change and how to follow this new career as a Legal Executive was requested. In response an outline of how the college gives it support was indicated.
