What this course is about
UCAS code: 052M
Here's what Coventry University says about its Law and Practice course.
Filled with intrigue and complexities, law is a fascinating and exciting subject area that is an essential component of every business organisation. The Law Higher National Diploma (HND) aims to provide a thorough understanding of the practice of law in the modern world. Success in this field demands discipline, strategic thinking, a solid knowledge of legislation and the ability to adapt to different scenarios. As legal knowledge is key for success in this career, this course focuses on teaching you key theoretical principles, with fundamental best practices such as making succinct legal arguments.
This HND follows the Year 1 and Year 2 curriculum of the Law and Practice BA (Hons) degree course.
The first year of this course focuses on the civil justice system and property law aspects of English Law. While the second year aims to extend your knowledge from the basic financial practices. You will begin to focus on the role of leadership within accounting. Operating from a business point of view, you will primarily focus on the role of the accounting profession, legislation and governance.

literally the biggest waste of time and money. all the good courses are full so good luck getting a place, all the arts courses are extremely underfunded and extremely politically charged. I've met multiple young people like me who have multiple jobs. wasted 36k, just get an apprenticeship
