Meet The Lawyers: Speed-Networking Event – BPP University, 15^th March, 6pm – 7.30pm

At BPP Bristol, we recognise the importance of our GDL and LPC students developing their networks in the legal sector at this early stage in their career. This can be a challenge for students who do not have any personal or family connections with the legal sector.

We are therefore hosting a small speed-networking event on Wednesday 15^th March from 6pm. The purpose of the speed-networking event is:

• To provide an opportunity for students to practice their networking skills, and to enhance students’ networks in the legal sector.
• To provide members of the Junior Lawyers Division with an opportunity to support BPP law students, representing their firm/organisation and demonstrating their commitment to equality and diversity.

If you have not come across the term ‘speed-networking’, it can be likened to the format of speed-dating – one student will be sat with one lawyer for a few minutes before a bell rings and the student moves on to the next lawyer. After completing a full circuit of the room, there will be time for more informal networking over some light refreshments.

We are looking for approximately 10 trainee or qualified to support this event. If you would be interested in participating in this event, please email Amy Haines (Careers Consultant) at amyhaines@bpp.com before Monday 13^th March with the following information:

• Your name
• Your firm/organisation and job title
• Confirmation of your availability on 15^th March from 6pm

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Amy on the above email address.

Thank you in advance for your support.
