Developments over the last two decades have made public procurement law one of the most exciting and rapidly evolving areas of law. Given the extent to which legal rules now govern the day-to-day conduct of most procurement activity, knowledge of procurement law has become vital for anyone working in public sector procurement.
This programme is open to those with a legal background and those without, and does not require a law degree. It is designed in particular for:

This is supported by an additional bespoke module covering wider legal regimes relevant to UK public procurement (for example, public law, freedom of information law, and other public sector legislation) as we continue to engage with leading practitioners and policy-makers on the legislation’s implementation.
