Law CPD Requirements - Solicitors

On 21 May 2020, following formal consultation, the SRA Board agreed to implement a new approach to ensure solicitors remain competent to practice. The new approach will be implemented for all solicitors from 1 November 2020. However, as of 1 April 2020, solicitors can choose to move to the new approach immediately.

The implementation of the new approach affects how you meet your continuing professional development (CPD) requirements until 1 November 2020. Until 31 October 2020, solicitors can choose either:

  • to follow existing CPD requirements; or
  • to adopt the new approach to continuing competence.
