Step 1 of 6Admission target

Where do you plan to be admitted?

Choose where you plan to seek admission first. This is different from where you may later hold a practising certificate or work.

What is your law degree status?

This determines whether you are likely ready for PLT now or need to check early commencement rules first.

Where did you complete your legal studies?

Domestic and overseas pathways can both lead to PLT, but overseas qualifications usually require assessment or top-up study first.

Which best describes you?

This helps tailor the result for domestic applicants, international students and overseas qualified applicants.

Has your overseas qualification been assessed?

This is the key question for international students, overseas qualified lawyers and anyone relying on overseas legal study.

Will you be working while doing PLT?

IOLT's online delivery is designed for students balancing PLT with work, but the result can highlight what to plan around.

Do you have workplace experience lined up?

IOLT's PLT includes 20 days of workplace experience. You can self-arrange it, or IOLT can help you arrange it.

Is that workplace likely to be eligible?

The safest workplace experience is supervised legal work where a suitable legal supervisor can confirm what you did.
