  • Chambers support staff whose role encompasses allocation of work for members and pupils, practice development meetings, managing more junior staff, overseeing the development and training of more junior staff and assisting on recruitment.

N.B. Very junior Chambers’ staff will generally find it more helpful to use the Foundation Course module specifically written for those beginning their careers in Chambers. The Foundation Course is a very good way to ensure that junior staff are aware and knowledgeable with regards to Equality, Diversity & Inclusion in the workplace and are able to understand good EDI practice.  A link can be found here.

The ABC Equality, Diversity & Inclusion training modules were specifically written for Members of Chambers and Chambers’ support staff by specialist employment barrister Kerry Gardiner and are designed to give Members of the Bar and Chambers staff a good understanding of diversity equality and inclusion and principally their context within a Chambers environment.
