Hi all;
I have worked as a Construction Project Manager for 5 years after undertaking a PT MBA in Paris. I am completing it (ends in July) and I would like to carry on with an LLM, distance learning for convenience.
Legal aspects becoming more and more critical to any Top Manager/Consultant; I was wondering if some of you could be kind enough and advice me:
Which universities would you recommend?
Does anyone can tell me about his/her experience doing a distance learning LLM?
Thank you very much, Patrick from Monaco.
Kind Regards,
LLM with no legal background

Hi Patrick
You may be interested in the American Academy of Project Management - http://www.projectmanagementcertification.org/. I do not know this field/its designations but I note that some of my applicants are certified and members of this association.
As regards an online LLM - our program has about 50% non-lawyers, and 50% non-US students, because it is multi-disciplinary, comparative approach to jurisprudential studies. See http://www.llmprogram.org which includes an alumni page of past students like yourself.

To me, distant LL.M will not pay anything. We need to be in practice and attend the real class to be able to work in the real world.

Good point vichekalay, fair enough .
Thanks a lot for your comment.
However, I think distance learning is tomorrow's way of training all over one's career. The Future will advise.

distance learning serves to extend the reach of education from those institutions who choose to offer it, such as The University of Edinburgh's LL.M in Innovation, Technology and the Law (www.law.ed.ac.uk/distancelearning/).
There is an excellent article on this very subject here on the LLM-guide.com website: http://www.llm-guide.com/article/15/e-learning-the-future-of-legal-education.
"Many Internet-au fait students are far more comfortable in an online discussion group (masquerading as a chatroom) than in a real classroom. Web-based materials can also offer considerable flexibility in learning in a number of different ways, from making effective use of live web links and computerassisted self-assessment exercises, to the imaginative deployment of audio and video capabilities, each allowing the student to work through the materials at her own pace and to revisit them as needs require."
Many of our students are already working in the "real world" and without distance learning they would never have opportunity to further their education. To them, it is the pursuit of specialist knowledge that drives them forward, because everyday they are putting their distance learning lessons in to practice. Some say that is even more advantageous than taking an entire year from your career to study on-campus.
There will shortly be real-world case studies from students' real experiences published on www.law.ed.ac.uk/distancelearning/, so keep an eye out for those!
Let me know if there's anything I can help with regarding the LL.M programme via distance learning at The University of Edinburgh (www.law.ed.ac.uk/distancelearning).

Very good article indeed.
Thanks a lot for your contribution to the discussion M. Miller.
I would rather agree with you.
What do you (as an academic) think about my project?
Does it hold water?
Thanks for your advice. Patrick DUPIN

Legal aspects becoming more and more critical to any Top Manager/Consultant;
The law is seen by many as an exceptionally complex and tough subject to comprehend. If you can offer any prospective client or employer a fully acrredited internationally recognised degree in Law, you will be noticed amongst an increasingly crowded MBA-savvy work force.
Have a look over case studies just published on the website to see how others, in not to dissimilar situations from yourself, has already benefited from their LL.M:

Funny, I'm on a similar career path.
I am finishing up an MBA at Lehigh University right now. I started there by doing a graduate certificate in Project Management, and was then able to use the credits I earned for the certificate for an MBA.
I am considering applying to University of London's LLM program when I finish my MBA. I will have to have a look at Edinburgh's program as well. I am currently managing IT projects, so this program may be a good fit.
By the way, Patrick, have you earned the PMP credential? I passed the test about two years ago, and I get a lot more responses to job leads now that I have it.
For anyone who is interested, here is some information about the project management certificate program at Lehigh: http://www.lehighmba.com/certPrograms.asp#pm
