ILPA Webinars

We’re excited to announce our brand new e-learning programme that will be launched in mid-April. You can find ILPA’s full training programme here. As we’re transitioning into home and lone working the delivery of live webinars to ensure practitioners stay informed of the latest developments in immigration, asylum and nationality law is ever more important.

ILPA are dedicated to providing the highest quality training to our members and the wider legal community, and will continue to deliver this throughout this testing time.

Our tutors are known for their experience, for keeping up to date with the continuing developments in immigration legislation and case law, and for their involvement in landmark cases. With the support of our tutors we hope to make our webinars interactive, engaging and a vital tool for practitioners to remain connected with their peers.

ILPA is a charity and all profits from ILPA training go towards supporting work to fulfil ILPA’s objectives.

Our trainers’ commitment to delivering these unique, collaborative courses is a source of inspiration to all members and attendees.  Information from ILPA’s influencing work and members’ casework feeds into the training programme and information from those trained informs that work in its turn.

Introduction to Tier 2: everything you need to know

The speakers were all excellent – very thorough, clear and approachable, and answered questions very well.

Nationality Law is Fun

I liked the in-depth case studies and the tutors encyclopaedic knowledge of the field.

Article 8 Applications

An absolutely essential course for anyone dealing with Article 8 issues. Highly recommended!

ILPA Well-being Conference

A really good event championing an excellent cause. With so many elements of immigration practice getting harder, it feels like the profession has a future if we are all more alert to our own well-being needs.

Immigration Law in Sport

I very much enjoyed this training. Glyn was an informative and personable speaker who gave real personal and practical insight, as well as clearly setting out the legislative framework.

Home Office Policy and Practice in the Coronavirus Crisis: what you need to know

The knowledge of everyone is fantastic especially given that the changes happened not so long ago, updates are still ongoing and the published guidance doesn’t address all issues. The webinar was conducted very well too. Well done ILPA and the tutors for doing such a good job!

Home Office Policy and Practice in the Coronavirus Crisis: what you need to know

I liked the the slides and recording being made available afterwards, something that does not happen in physical events.

Home Office Policy and Practice in the Coronavirus Crisis: what you need to know

It was the first time I have used ZOOM and appreciate all the effort tutors and everyone made to make it a special  free event

Introduction to Immigration Law: getting started

I liked the structure, I think the tutors managed to cover a very broad and incredibly complex subject matter clearly and concisely. It was engaging and interesting. Both tutors clearly had excellent knowledge, it was a joy to attend!

Introduction to Immigration Law: getting started

The course pack looks excellent and the links in the slides are relevant and up-to-date. The slides were very useful because they enabled me to prepare myself for my note-taking and I could structure my notes better. ***It is a great idea to have the slides a few days beforehand as I would have been lost without them.*

Nationality Law in the Age of Brexit

Alison Harvey is brilliant, she is able to elaborate pertinently when asked about anything.

I liked the thoroughness of the slides and the tutor’s passion on the subject.

Irish citizens & people of Northern Ireland in UK immigration and nationality law after Brexit

Experts who totally mastered their field. Great to get the historical context to understand the issues here and then the latest updates.

Irish citizens & people of Northern Ireland in UK immigration and nationality law after Brexit

I have to confess that I was planning to listen in and multi-task, but I was hooked – brilliant webinar, perfectly pitched.

Irish citizens & people of Northern Ireland in UK immigration and nationality law after Brexit

I thought the three presenters covered their areas very well. They were all interlinked to the topic and made this complex area of immigration law very accessible to those without a legal background.

Naturalisation as British citizens for EU family members and associated registration applications for minor dependants

Fabulous!

Fantastic trainer – vast knowledge!

Naturalisation as a British Citizen

I like the clarity of the course! Very enriching.

Naturalisation as a British Citizen

I like the practical scenarios that we worked through together in the group. Also, going back to basics and looking at the statutory test for naturalisation. Considering discretionary points. Using the guidance and regulations to talk through general policy. All very useful.

Tier 1 (Investor) update

James was an excellent tutor. The opportunity to ask James questions and have them answered was much more valuable to me than the content itself and this was the main reason for me booking on.

Innovator & Start-up – the new rules explained Plus Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) & (Investor) update

I liked Sophie’s presentation – she was brilliant in explaining the start up and innovator categories.

Innovator & Start-up – the new rules explained Plus Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) & (Investor) update

Having limited knowledge of tier 2, this session really helped my current knowledge to expand, and develop into more detail.

This is probably one of the best ILPA training’s.

I liked to manner of conducting the session – informal – and the depth of information.

An Excellent, Insightful training!
