The Graduate Certificate in Parliamentary Law and Practice is a professional training program specifically designed for parliamentary clerks.

- Provide an in depth understanding of the law, custom, practices and procedures of parliament and other related public law topics for persons working with parliament and for students of the parliamentary process.
