I thoroughly recommend the programme to students and aspiring solicitors!"-- Student from University of Exeter
"This programme was a great insight into the firm and the type of work they do. I found it easy to follow and engaging throughout, would definitely recommend!"-- Student from The University of Liverpool
"I thought the exercises were really well-rounded, requiring a broad set of skills, such as attention to detail, abstract reasoning and commercial awareness. I got to mobilise all these skills, which gave me a better idea of what a working day at NRF might be like."-- Student from Kingston University
"A really helpful and well-designed course, challenging without being overwhelming to a non-lawyer, well explained, and with a variety of interesting and thought-through tasks. Gave a very good idea of the kind of work NRF does, and the skills and standards it expects. Would highly recommend."-- Student from University of Cambridge
