Committees
Admissions and Education
One of the primary regulatory responsibilities of the Law
Society is protection of the public by ensuring that only those
qualified to practice are admitted to the profession. The
Admissions & Education Committee is the gatekeeper for the
legal profession in Saskatchewan. The Committee's responsibilities
are to establish Rules to:
- ensure that new members have both the requisite integrity and
appropriate competency to practice law by administering Admission
requirements, the Bar Admissions course (CPLED) and articling
- regulate readmission of those that have left the practice
of law
- regulate interprovincial mobility and transfers
- oversee the delivery of continuing professional
development
The Admissions & Education Committee is assisted by
the Executive Director, the Director of Admissions &
Education and the Director of Bar Admissions. The administration
staff at the Law Society is responsible for ensuring compliance
with the policies.
