JULY 18 — The Legal Profession Qualifying Board (LPQB) released a statement yesterday (17 July 2021) that, due to the uncertainty and unpredictability of the current pandemic, the LPQB had decided to conduct the Certificate in Legal Practice (CLP) examination for the 2021 batch between February and April 2022. For those who are not familiar with the qualification required for legal practice, the CLP is one of the two prominent pathways for students from private and foreign universities to become lawyers in Malaysia, the other being the Bar Professional Training Course (BPTC) in the UK. Due to the cost involved in pursuing the BPTC in the UK, the CLP pathway becomes a popular choice for students who do not have the means.
