Why complete PMC Plus? PMC Plus is a distinctive program designed for legal practitioners practising in New South Wales who wish to move to the next stage of their career by seeking to satisfy the removal of Condition 3 imposed pursuant to s 53 of the Legal Profession Uniform Law (NSW) and Rule 16(b)(ii) of the Legal Profession Uniform General Rules 2015 from their practising certificate.

The course conforms with the Practice Management Course Guidelines for New South Wales published by The Law Society of New South Wales and has been designed for legal practitioners, that have at least two years of supervision. The course is not limited to any particular type of practitioner. The flexible delivery of the course equips legal practitioners with future-focused content in a format that is accessible for busy practitioners.
