Logbooks and Quarterly Reviews

During the traineeship, trainees must complete logbooks detailing the range of work they have been exposed to. Logbooks have been developed to cover a wide range of legal practice areas. 

In addition, solicitors responsible for supervising trainees must review performance on a quarterly basis. The review covers the skills which a trainee should be developing as they progress through the traineeship.

Copies of a guidance note relating to both the logbooks and quarterly reviews, and the 'Review Form' itself, can be downloaded from the related files to the right.  You can also complete the review form online - follow the 'Trainee Review' link from the right hand navigation menu or click here.
