Free CPD events
These are generally held as member only webinars on topical subjects (rather than being supplier led) and are extremely popular with members, always being well attended.
The annual SLC Conference in Derby
The professions event of the year. Our Conference has a great reputation for delivering a well-structured and highly topical agenda and it is followed by the informal and fun dinner.
A library of guides
We have now over 30 Client guides and many practitioners have joined the SLC simply to access these guides which are regularly reviewed and updated. Our Guides help conveyancers explain some of the tricky issues that clients need to understand. Using guides like these save time, ensure better client service, and can help protect firms against negligence claims or complaints.
Newsletter bulletins and regular publications with the latest conveyancer news
In the fast changing world of conveyancing, keeping up to date is essential. On many occasions we seek members views on a variety of subjects to inform through these communications the Board and make sure we are the voice of our members.
Professional indemnity insurance
The SLC policy delivered through Howden has been transformational in lowering the cost of PI Insurance for Licensed Conveyancer firms.
Help with lenders’ panels
An issue that never goes away. Whilst the number of lenders that don’t accept Licensed Conveyancers on their Panel is now minimal (and of insignificant market share) we continue to battle with them, as we do on behalf of members who have particular issues.
A cyber insurance policy
Which we believe is essential in todays hi-tech and sometimes dangerous world.
Parliamentary and stakeholder lobbying
The voice of conveyancers is sometimes lost in the easy headlines that blame conveyancers for all the delays and problems in the home buying and selling process. Getting to the policy makers is really important against this backdrop.
Free job advertising
To help members identify new job opportunities.
A ‘dating service’
To help members with exit strategies that may involve mergers and acquisitions that recognise those members aspirations.
‘Find a conveyancer’ search function
Designed to be a source of instructions for members.
