Yes, that includes all solicitors!
And yes, it is likely to be a regulatory breach to do nothing about it! The SRA is pegging Continuing Competence closely to Principle 5 (You must provide a proper standard of service to clients).
So with that in mind, we have put together a little template Continuing Competence policy as your starting point.
All you need to do is confirm your email address – you’ll also automatically start getting regular COLP and COFA news and updates! Don’t worry, you can unsubscribe at any time.
BONUS – as a thank you for subscribing, you will also receive a free template Learning and Development Plan (spreadsheet).
For full details about Continuing Competence, have a look at our post on the topic – “Don’t count to sixteen“.
Please let us know what you think about the templates – is there anything we should add or amend?[/fusion_text][section_separator divider_candy=”” icon=”” icon_color=”” bordersize=”1px” bordercolor=”” backgroundcolor=”” class=”” id=””][button link=”http://eepurl.com/cjJ85D” color=”red” size=”” type=”” shape=”” target=”_self” title=”” gradient_colors=”|” gradient_hover_colors=”|” accent_color=”” accent_hover_color=”” bevel_color=”” border_width=”1px” shadow=”” icon=”” icon_position=”left” icon_divider=”no” modal=”” animation_type=”0″ animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”1″ alignment=”” class=”” id=””]Click here to get the templates[/button]
