Purpose
CILEx set out to create a formal process for training legal support staff that would be recognised and respected in the legal community. With growing recognition The institute's purpose has evolved: it now has its own front line regulator, ILEX Professional Standards (IPS) and provides a vocational career route from trainee to professional lawyer.
The profile of the institute's membership is also changing. Some of the most able legal executives are now law firm partners and legal executives can also become Judges in England and Wales. Law graduates may also take an alternative route to becoming a solicitor by using the institute's "graduate fast-track" scheme.

Famous quotes containing the word purpose:
“Of what significance the light of day, if it is not the reflection of an inward dawn?—to what purpose is the veil of night withdrawn, if the morning reveals nothing to the soul? It is merely garish and glaring.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“A material resurrection seems strange and even absurd except for purposes of punishment, and all punishment which is to revenge rather than correct must be morally wrong, and when the World is at an end, what moral or warning purpose can eternal tortures answer?”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“I don’t think life is absurd. I think we are all here for a huge purpose. I think we shrink from the immensity of the purpose we are here for.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
