What this means for your training plan

The legal training route and access to supervised practical learning should lead the comparison. Fees and convenience matter, but neither resolves an unsuitable workplace arrangement or missing licensing evidence.

Compare the actual elective plan, attendance, workplace access and itemised costs. Ask who pays each item and whether the quote covers the whole course. Fees, subsidy eligibility and an available place remain offer-specific; no all-in national fee range is verified here.
