New micro-credentials from the Law Society of Ireland – specialist, bite-sized learning for professional development
The Law Society is delighted to launch a suite of brand-new micro-credentials in autumn 2025.
These short, accredited courses will enable you to advance in key areas of law and practice through expert-led lectures and practical, skills-based workshops. Delivered online and running from September, they are designed to give you the flexibility needed to balance work, life, and learning.
Topics include Artificial Intelligence (AI), Alternative Dispute Resolution, sports law, environmental law and climate change, and social media and the law. These micro-credentials are tailor-made to help you gain a competitive edge.
Benefits for solicitors
Micro-credentials offer flexibility, quality and are designed so you can learn at your own pace.
- Claim up to 15 hours CPD for one course
- Stake micro-credentials – complete two courses for a Certificate and four for a Diploma
- Use to up-skill, switch careers or advance in your current role
What are micro-credentials?
This new addition to the Law Society’s extensive range of legal education offerings responds to global trends for evolving and more flexible education. We have developed the micro-credentials to meet that demand in Ireland, and they are open to anyone working in the legal sector as well as professionals in other areas.
