The Certificate Course on Legislative Drafting is offered by the National Law Institute University (NLIU), Bhopal, in collaboration with the Vidhi Centre for Legal Policy.

This online certificate programme aims to introduce students to the art and science of legislative drafting within the context of India’s legal system, policymaking framework, and constitutional experiences. The course seeks to bridge the gap created by the limited focus on legislative drafting in Indian legal education by equipping students with practical skills and conceptual understanding of this crucial discipline.

Through a structured series of sessions, the course explores the core principles and techniques of legislative drafting, including legislative style, structure, and the key components of a Bill. It will also familiarise participants with the process of transforming a policy idea into clear, concise, and legally effective legislation.

Participants will benefit from insights shared by distinguished academics, practitioners, and policy experts, offering a blend of theoretical understanding and real-world application. The course provides an excellent opportunity to engage with contemporary debates, refine drafting skills, and prepare for emerging challenges in the field of legislative drafting and public policy.
