By the decision of the Committee of Russian Lawyers Association concerning the social assessment of higher legal education from December 16, 2011, Protocol No.14 it was decided to issue the Certificate No.62 to confirm the social accreditation of Federal State State-Financed Educational Institution of Higher Professional Education "South Ural State University" (National Research University), educational institution of higher professional education which trains the law staff. The Certificate was given on the 6th of April, 2012 by S.V. Stepashin to the Dean of Law Faculty A.N. Klassen.
We would like to remind that on February 4 in the newsline at Cheldiplom.ru there was a message that 16% of legal universities could not acquire the social accreditation. It was announced by S. Stepashin, Co-Chairman of Russian Lawyers Association (RLA) and Head of Accounts Chamber of the Russian Federation. According to Mr. Stepashin in Russia there are a great number of specialists with diplomas though really competent lawyers are in scarce supply. However he noted that the legal community with the help of PLA managed to change the situation in that sphere having implemented the social accreditation. Also the Head of Accounts Chamber underlined that the filter of social accreditation will be quite rough and effective. Finally, on the list of universities with accreditation there might be no more than 200 out of 1250 higher institutions of the country.
SUSU was one of the first universities which requested RLA to carry out the social accreditation. The procedure was successfully completed in autumn 2011 at the Faculty of Law.
