Humber’s Law Clerk diploma program provides in-depth training delivered by experienced professionals. Learn from practising lawyers and law clerks who give students the inside scoop on the current trends and opportunities in the field. As a law clerk, working under the direct supervision of a lawyer, students will be an important part of the team that allows the lawyer to succeed.

A student's law clerk education includes courses on contract, tort, real estate, corporate and family law, as well as in litigation, legal research, wills and estates, and more. Solid knowledge on diverse areas of law, competence in a range of legal and court procedures, and strong written and oral communication skills will make one a valuable team player in the profession.

Students must complete a 120 hour work placement. The unpaid placement is completed during Semester 4. All courses from Semesters 1 to 3 must be completed before enrolling in the field placement in Semester 4. Working with the field placement advisor, students are actively involved in pursuing placement opportunities. In addition, students are expected to market themselves to prospective employers and are free to initiate their own placements.
