How to become a lawyer in Canada - A quick guide for the internationally trained lawyer

08/18/2025 For internationally trained lawyers, navigating the Canadian legal landscape can be a complex process. The first crucial step is to have your legal qualifications assessed by the National Committee on Accreditation .
The NCA is a standing committee of the Federation of Law Societies of Canada. Its purpose is to evaluate the legal education and professional experience of individuals who obtained their law degrees outside of Canada. Based on this assessment, the NCA will issue a report outlining any additional requirements you need to meet to have your qualifications recognized. These requirements typically include completing specific assignments and successfully writing NCA exams in core subjects of Canadian law.
This is where a specialized resource can make a significant difference. NCA Tutor™ is a leading provider of comprehensive study materials and support for internationally trained lawyers preparing for their NCA exams. Their resources are designed to help you prepare effectively for the rigorous exams, which are a necessary step toward becoming a licensed lawyer in Canada. NCA Tutor provides guidance, practice questions, and expert instruction to ensure you are well-equipped to pass your exams on the first attempt.
To explore the full range of resources and begin your preparation, visit the NCA Tutor courses page. By using their targeted materials, you can streamline your study plan and focus on the specific areas you need to master.
Successful completion of the NCA requirements is a major milestone. After receiving your Certificate of Qualification from the NCA, you can apply for admission to the bar in a Canadian province or territory. The final steps often involve completing articles (a period of on-the-job training) or a bar admission course, and then writing the bar exams for the specific jurisdiction.
Starting this journey with the right support is key. For more information on how NCA Tutor can assist with your exam preparations, we invite you to check out their offerings on their courses page.
