The Black Lawyers Association Western Cape, Gauteng, Limpopo, North West and Eastern Cape Provincial Branches, in partnership with the Wits Law Clinic, are proud to announce the official launch of the Advocates Competency-Based Examination (CBE) Support Programme.

This flagship interprovincial initiative reflects our collective commitment to strengthening the profession by equipping pupil advocates with the practical advocacy skills, mentorship and support required to excel in the Legal Practice Council Competency-Based Examinations and beyond.

We are excited to commence the programme with our inaugural session on Motion Court Proceedings, facilitated by Lerato Moela. This session marks the beginning of a series of practical, high-impact classes designed to prepare the next generation of advocates for success.

We extend our sincere appreciation to our partners at the Wits Law Clinic and to every Provincial Branch whose collaboration and shared vision made this initiative possible.

Together, we are not only preparing candidates for examinations—we are investing in the future of the legal profession.
