“This program will allow to select the best entrants who are able to undergo a rather complicated and laborious program of training. It is profitable for both the market and future specialists. The market will receive qualified specialists ready to work at full capacity from the first day. And the future lawyers will be able to be sure of their future, because there are few such specialists in the market. ”
