LSSA LEAD Reading List
The PVT School, established by the Law Society of South Africa (LSSA) and implemented via its Legal Education and Development division (LEAD), provides a postgraduate vocational training course for law graduates and is registered by SAQA and accredited by the LPC.
This is a practical law school offered by the LSSA on a distance-learning basis, in preparation for the competency-based admission examinations written by candidate legal practitioners intending to practice as an attorney. LLB graduates who successfully complete the course qualify to reduce their PVT contract period by 12-months should they wish to be admitted as attorneys.
The School course consists of modules as prescribed by the regulations as per the LPA (as amended). The programme is standardised and uniform throughout South Africa.
