In view of fundamental changes currently being made to the CPR following the review by Jackson LJ, which will necessitate extensive revision to the ACL Training Programme, it has been decided to defer trainee entry for this year. As a consequence, the next intake of students will be in September 2014.

Please rest assured that, during this moratorium, training standards will be maintained for students enrolled upon the existing training course.

As part of necessary revisions, the opportunity will be taken to look at where the new Training Course will be positioned in the Qualification and Credit Framework going forward, in order to ensure that the course continues to represent excellent value, both in terms of cost and benefit to trainee members.
