DLP MODES

DLP is delivered through different modes to different groups within the legal market which have differing needs. However, all modes have the same learning outcomes, though they are delivered in different ways.

FULL-TIME MODE:

It is a Nyanza-based mode that allows our trainees to complete the program in just 9 months (6 months of formal instruction and 3 months of Industrial attachment). Students can choose between two convenient dates to commence their studies (January and July each year).

PART-TIME MODE:

ILPD runs the following three programs that allow trainees to finish their programs within 10 months of classroom activities and 3 Months of industrial attachment:

Evening Program:

The evening program is offered in Kigali (ILPD Kigali office) and Saint Paul premises.

Weekend Program:

Currently the weekend program is offered in Kigali (ILPD Kigali office), Musanze (INES Ruhengeri premises), and Nyanza main campus.

Executive Mode: 

The range of experience amongst those who are obliged by law to take the DLP is great. ILPD does not think it appropriate to teach fresh graduates and highly experienced legal professionals together in one group and that is why it has differentiated various categories distinctively. This gives each category liberty to freely interact with colleagues.

 The criteria for eligibility are based on seniority of lawyers, state attorney or judges who can demonstrate that, by their virtue of experience.
