Katten’s Training Contracts are offered to students who take part in our Summer Vacation Scheme, which this cycle will be taking place from 16 to 20 June inclusive. The scheme aims to give students first-hand experience of what it is like to train and work at Katten, so you can better understand whether Katten is the right fit for you.

During the week you will sit primarily within one of our practice groups, sharing a room with associates and senior associates gaining invaluable insights into the work they do. We always encourage you to seek out opportunities within other practice areas too — our aim is to create well-rounded lawyers with strong legal knowledge, so both the Vacation Scheme week and training contract are designed with this flexibility in mind.

On the Vacation Scheme you can expect to get involved in drafting memos and research, a mixture of individual and group tasks (both legal and nonlegal) and attend various skills sessions on presenting and business development to name a few. Social events including album clubs, the London Legal Walk, small group lunches and networking evenings allow our students to get to know our lawyers, from current trainees through to partners, on a more personal level.
