Course Description

Criminal Practice is a face-to-face intensive course. Students should note that there are three distinctly different intensives held. They are different in that the teaching and learning methods including assessment vary. Each course is jurisdictionally specific.*

 

This course is currently offered in:

  • Canberra, ACT (4 day intensive - enrolments are capped at 150)
  • Darwin, NT (5 day intensive that is specific to NT law - enrolments are capped at 30)   
  • Perth, WA (5 day intensive that is specific to WA law - enrolments are capped at 35)

 

Please refer to the topics link for further individual course descriptions.
