- Higher Diploma for Legal Executive - Distinction student
I think this programme is very practical. It contains 14 law-related modules, giving students more opportunities to get familiar with the law. Moreover, the teachers are very friendly. I originally thought that the lawyers would be very serious, but they are willing to get close to the students. They not only care about the students' grades, but also the students' mental health.
