Kennedys Training Contract 2028

No published policyTraining Contract (2028 intake)

Unconfirmed. Kennedys publishes no sponsorship policy for its training contract, so we cannot state a firm answer. Kennedys' two-year training contract rotates trainees through practice areas and funds the LLM SQE1&2 course at BPP plus a maintenance grant, with a parallel Scotland traineeship in Edinburgh and Glasgow and a 30-month Graduate Apprenticeship. None of the three routes states a trainee salary, an application deadline or a visa sponsorship policy on this page.

The catch: Non-law graduates must complete a separate law conversion course before starting the funded LLM SQE1&2, adding time before the funded training even begins.
