*'''Study & Life Skills Programme'''
 
Most students entering the pre-University programmes are usually unprepared to take on more demanding courses which require them to have a strong probing mind and critical thinking. Many students are also found to have low self-confidence which acts as a hindrance in group study situations or when they have to have to speak up or share their thoughts. Another area that needs attention is 'independent thinking', the desire to think for oneself. One of the biggest problems plaguing our community is 'herd mentality'. Students are afraid to think differently from others and that affects their quality of thought, speech and action. Students go through the Study and Life Skills program as an induction program to prepare them not only for the course but also for their career. The program will focus on study techniques, time management, goal setting, critical thinking and creativity.

The Board allows Law degree holders from certain universities in the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand to sit for the examination. Upon obtaining the CLP, students will normally proceed to do chambering, which is a form of apprenticeship similar to a pupilage in England. After completing nine months of chambering, students may finally be called to the Bar to become qualified advocates and solicitors.
