The Faculty of Law develops its continuing education in line with the principle of lifelong learning, understanding its responsibility in ensuring the professional competence of the legal profession. The Faculty’s disciplines and groups of disciplines organise continuing education events according to business principles. Education targeting cooperation partners and the general public may also be organised free of charge. The Faculty develops these activities in cooperation with employers, and the Faculty’s teachers sometimes participate as expert lecturers in continuing education events organised by other parties.
