STADIO Higher Education has undertaken strategic international partnership with the United Kingdom’s Law Training Centre (LTC), giving South African law graduates, attorneys, and advocates the opportunity to qualify—or dual-qualify—as Solicitors of England and Wales through the globally recognised Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE).

Through this partnership, LTC’s specialised SQE1 and SQE2 online preparation courses are available to learners in South Africa via STADIO. These courses are designed specifically for international candidates and align with the SQE assessment framework, offering structured digital content, expert tutor support, and flexible, self-paced learning that fits around professional and personal commitments. 

This pathway is open to:

  • Law graduates seeking international professional recognition
  • Practising attorneys and advocates wishing to expand their global reach through dual-qualification

A New Global Pathway for South African Legal Professionals

Qualifying as a Solicitor of England and Wales offers unmatched global mobility and professional versatility. The qualification is internationally respected and provides access to work in cross-border transactions, commercial practice, international arbitration, and with multinational clients.

Given the strong presence of English common law principles in South Africa’s legal system, local graduates and practitioners start with a solid jurisprudential foundation for SQE success. The SQE pathway offers flexible access, multiple exam preparation options, and clear progression routes.

Anri Lock Ferguson, Head of the School of Law at STADIO, highlights the importance of this initiative:

“STADIO is committed to ensuring that our graduates and legal professionals have access to world-class opportunities. This partnership expands the global horizons available to South Africans by providing a clear, supported route to one of the most respected legal qualifications in the world. It is a meaningful step toward ensuring South Africans can participate confidently in an increasingly international legal landscape.”
