各出席嘉賓在學生及畢業生聚會上致辭

With the continued rise in enrolment in the Preparatory Programme for Bachelor of Laws (LLB) over the past years, SPEED is committed to providing value-added services for its students.

A seminar on "Law meets Business - how legal knowledge can empower a commercial career" was held on 26 August 2006. Presented by Mr C.K. Cho, a previous LLB graduate of the University of London, the former Head of Research and Management Services of the Operation Department in Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), a qualified barrister in the UK and Hong Kong, and CEO of Aida International Consultants Limited, the seminar attracted a full house with over 170 attendees. Participants' response was overwhelming and many found Mr Cho's extensive knowledge and experience in the industry inspiring.

Last year, SPEED is proud to have the first batch of LLB graduates who joined its Preparatory Programme three years ago. They acknowledge with gratitude that this programme has not only helped them develop their legal knowledge, but has also enhanced their analytical and problem-solving skills in both legal and non-legal settings. As for new students of the programme, many of them joined through referrals from friends who are either existing or past students.

To celebrate this happy occasion, SPEED organized a LLB Students and Graduates Gathering on 3 December 2006. Current students, recent graduates, ITC and KATC lecturers, representatives from the University of London and representatives took the opportunity to meet in an informal and friendly atmosphere. Ms Mary Luckham, Assistant Director (Learning Environment), External Laws Programme of the University of London, and Dr Simon Coldham, Programme Advisor for the LLB Preparatory Programme and Senior Lecturer of the University of London, participated in the event to present prizes and awards to star-performing students and graduates who have received Second Class Honours (Upper Division). This event was attended by around 100 guests.

These are just among a long list of social activities for LLB students. SPEED aims to offer diverse channels for its students to enhance their learning experience, and expand their social network through meeting new friends and professionals in the field.

鑒於法律學士學位的備試課程去年報讀人數持續增加,SPEED現正致力為課程學生提供各種增值服務。

一個題為「Law meets Business – how legal knowledge can empower a commercial career」的研討會於2006年8月26日舉行,由倫敦大學法律學士課程畢業生曹志光先生主講。曹先生是在英國與香港均有執業資格的大律師,兼Aida International Consultants Limited的行政總裁。是次研討會反應熱烈,出席者超過一百七十名。與會者踴躍發問,他們都受到曹先生的專業知識與豐富經驗所啟發。

三年前首批在SPEED開始修讀法律學士學位備試課程的同學已於去年畢業,課程不但豐富了各同學的法學知識,也增進了他們法學範疇內外的分析與解難能力。新生之中,亦有不少是經課程畢業生及同學推薦而報讀本課程的。

為了慶祝這個大喜日子,SPEED在2006年12月3日舉辦了一次學生與畢業同學聚會。各同學、畢業生、ITC與KATC講師、倫敦大學代表及業界代表,均藉此機會在輕鬆氣氛下聚首一堂。是次聚會約有一百位嘉賓出席,倫敦大學校外法律課程副總監Mary Luckham女士與法律學士學位備試課程顧問兼倫敦大學高級講師Simon Coldham博士亦有出席,向獲得二等甲級榮譽以上成績優異畢業生頒贈各種獎項。

SPEED會繼續為法律學士課程學生舉辦不同的聚會,目的在於為同學提供各種豐富學習經驗的途徑,並讓同學通過結識新朋友及業界專才而擴闊人際網絡。
