The Macmillan School™ Job-Ready Training Certificate for Law Students

level 1/530 Little Collins StMelbourne, VIC
Tuesday, Feb 17, 2026 from 10 am to 4 pm AEDT
Overview

Practical, hands-on training in critical skills that employers value more highly than your university grades and prior legal experience.

Get in-person training with Dr Peter Macmillan, Founder of The Macmillan School, who will teach you the practical legal skills that law schools don't!

This course takes place in Dr Macmillan's Melbourne office during a typical working day. You'll witness client interactions and participate in practical tasks that will give you that critical edge when applying and interviewing for legal jobs.

With its one-on-one feedback and personal mentoring, this unique course has helped hundreds of students gain further legal experience, get the legal roles they want, and develop deeper connections within the profession.

During the course you will:

  • Draft a Non Disclosure Agreement (NDA)
  • Analyse the details of a Notarial Certificate
  • Respond to client questions and concerns
  • Learn the value of your professional time
  • Prepare and swear or affirm an Affidavit.

In addition to these tasks - which you will complete under the direct guidance and supervision of Dr Macmillan - you'll see modeled in real-time how a senior lawyer handles phone inquiries and delivers professional services to clients, potentially with your involvement as events unfold.

From Law School to Legal Practice. Learn from practising lawyers. Build the practical, professional skills law school doesn't teach - so you can secure the legal roles you want and thrive in legal practice.

This course is designed to get your legal career off to the best possible start. It is especially valuable for those law students without prior legal experience or pre-existing professional connections.
