Abstract
This chapter discusses the three main practical legal activities often encountered by law students during their time at university—mooting, negotiation, and client interviewing—;describing what each activity is, what it involves, and how to take part successfully. This is followed by an outline of the employability skills developed by each activity. Each section concludes with guidance on finding opportunities to take part in the activities, both within one's university and by taking part in national and international competitions.
