Legal Skills Journal

The BLESSING AT THE BAR Legal Skills Journal is your structured space for professional reflection and growth. Designed for Law students, pupils, and early-career lawyers, it helps you document your learning journey and develop the habits of continuous self-assessment expected of successful advocates.

Each section of the journal aligns with the ten key competencies outlined in the BATB Legal Skills Framework, giving you space to set objectives, reflect on experience, and plan your next steps. Use it monthly or weekly to strengthen your self-awareness, evidence progress, and prepare confidently for interviews, appraisals or general development.
