Bar Student to Barrister Podcast

Welcome to our weekly Podcast

Welcome to from Bar Student to Barrister, the weekly podcast on your journey into pupillage, and beyond into the early years of practice at the Bar.

If you are considering the Bar as a future profession, if you are currently going through training for the Bar or pupillage, or perhaps you simply want to know more about what the Bar – and training for the Bar – is all about, then you have come to the right place. The Bar, and training for the Bar, can seem confusing at times, but in this podcast you will hear from many Bar students, from pupils and from practising barristers who will demystify the whole process of becoming a barrister and navigating pupillage and those early years of practice. 

Presented by Chris Kessling, ICCA Vice Dean, and Jody Klaire, ICCA alumna, listen every Friday from 17 October 2025, and add to your bank of knowledge from the lives and experiences of many other people who have taken the decision that the Bar is the profession they want to pursue. Available wherever you get your podcasts.
