Centre for Law and Business Ltd/Gte (CLB) is a non-profit and
non-governmental organisation established with the overall mission of
engendering a better educated society especially with regard to the role of law
in society, business, management and enhancement of the capabilities of the
citizenry.
In pursuance of this mission, CLB seeks to provide knowledge that creates
innovation, industry and ideas for growth, enable and advance continuing legal
and non legal adult education, offer basic understanding of legal requirements
as may be relevant and empower through knowledge, skills and self
development.
The Centre aims to attain excellence in and
contribute to the study, practice and appreciation of law, business and
management ethics, practices and considerations and importantly considerations
of leadership. These will involve issues of corporate and good governance
amongst other considerations
CLB offers various intellectual products and services including learning,
teaching and tutorial support for Law and Business Degrees and Postgraduate
Diplomas of the University of London namely:
UNDERGRADUATE LEVEL: - LLB
(Bachelor of Laws) - Bsc Law with Management/Management with Law - Bsc Law with
Accounting/Accounting with Law
GRADUATE LEVEL: - Postgraduate
Certificate in Laws - Postgraduate Diploma in Laws - Master of Laws (LL.M.) -
Master of Business in International Management (MBA) - Postgraduate Diploma in
International Management.
The Centre builds upon the opportunities
offered by the University of London External Programme.
Whilst students of the University of London registered through the External
Programme may undertake their own independent study, they are more likely able
to complete their degrees more quickly and with better results through learning
and tutorial support at the Centre for Law and Business.
Our objective therefore is to enable students achieve their qualifications
faster and with better results making use of our facilities.
In addition, studying through the Centre affords students the opportunity of
meeting and interacting with their peers which facilitates valuable contacts,
networking opportunities, cross fertilization of ideas, experiences and
knowledge, and mutually beneficial collaboration.
This is so, and particularly useful as our students are matured accomplished
individuals holding down responsible and important positions.
The
benefits of such contacts are immeasurable.
On other opportunities, our short courses and programmes in various aspects
of law, business, management and leadership are highly beneficial.
These programmes are designed to address contemporary issues as well as
enable practitioners, directors, entrepreneurs, managers, administrators and all
interested persons acquire new skills and knowledge or further develop and
deepen existing knowledge and skills.
For the Law students in Nigerian
Universities, CLB's tutorial/revision classes are designed to supplement the
academic work of the various faculties of Law and better prepare and equip them
for an enhanced understanding of the law and requirements for the practice of
law. The programme also exposes the students to various facilities for the study
and practice of law.
It is highly contemporary in objective, methodology and
delivery.
Also, CLB Annual Public Lectures are designed as a public
service initiative.
In summation, we offer some form of intellectual product or the other for a
considerable proportion of the citizenry and will be pleased to welcome all
interested persons to Centre for Law and Business.
To make our offerings availabe, we intend to operate Learning Centres at
Lagos, Abuja, and Port-Harcourt.
