 no. no. no. if you intend to learn law, it has to be on campus, if you want some level of credibility. There are tons of fly by nigh operators who offer everything from LLB to MMBS and MBA

PLESE DO NOT BELIEVE SUCH TYPES OF ONLINE EXAMINATION.  YOU WILL HAVE TO COMPLETE LLB FROM LAW COLLEGES ONLY.

I feel its pretty safe for you to pursue that course as its a diploma program and and contact the relevent people for more details, as even I have got the details of the program and it might be helpful for you to get into LPOs, firms both domestic and international and probably MNCs. I would suggest you to contact these people and get to know more about it.

why do you think it is bluff?

I see that you are a senior member on this forum and a one word answer to that? without knowing what it is...

Law is case specific. A good book on subject and practical experience is more important than any on line course. 35K  is like to be a waste of time, money ang energy inmy view.

we in india still fear about online courses bt whn it comes to ipr or cyber law we go for online courses. so before taking plunge check its authenticity your self ur feeling confused as lots of money is involved and returns are unknown.so my advice is talk to other students who have already undergone this and from try to have a know how from other sources as well.

Thanks all but now I'm more confused. According to my principal, it's a good value add course but you're all saying otherwise. Please explain.

Also this institute offering this diploma is established in the US.

I agree with charundureja. I checked the website and felt that there is nothing wrong in taking the program. you can check with your principal and get more details on it . Later contact these people and clarify any doubts you have regarding the course.

Dear All,

Thanks for your replies, for me to make sure I have options open to join in law firms. I think I would seriously consider this course as soon as my exams get over. I enquired with them, & they seem to be quite proffessional & are ofering the same course which is offered in US, however their course fees seems to be on the higher side... :(

The course would have about 30 papers to write (Online), & would be graded. It seems that the text books & relevant study material would be couriered to us

I feel by doing this, I would have better carrerr options. Is there anyone here who has done this course???? Please share your contact numbers or advise if it can be completed in a years time, & if it was helpful?? As they say the average time to finish would be about a years time...
