About us

The Diploma in Law is a collaborative effort by the Law Extension Committee and NSW Legal Profession Admission Board.


Law Extension Committee

The Law Extension Committee (LEC) was established by the University of Sydney Senate to administer the Diploma in Law, a course developed by the Legal Profession Admission Board (LPAB).

The committee provides the tuition required by the students enrolled in the LPAB’s Diploma in Law program using the University’s practitioners and academics, and access to the extensive resources at the Sydney Law Library (the Herbert Smith Freehills Law Library).
