Student Resumes

Create a Profile

Please fill in the form below to create your student profile.


CPLED has provided this directory to assist students in seeking summer and articling employment opportunities. CPLED recommends that any documents uploaded to this webpage be reviewed to ensure the materials accurately reflect your education, experience, and status in Canada.

Once your profile is submitted, a confirmation email is sent to CPLED for verification. Upon approval by CPLED, your profile is activated and appears in the directory.

Please note it may take up to five business days before your resume becomes available in the directory.  Your student profile is active for one (1) year after submission. After this time, it will be deleted.

Please do not include any personal information, such as your phone number, address or email, on your resume.  An email address where law firms can contact you is required to create a profile.

In general, Law Societies require their members to be complete and candid in communications with the Law Society, and they prohibit misleading marketing to the public. Therefore, it is important to be clear, complete and candid in any documentation uploaded to this webpage and when pursuing membership with a Law Society.

For example, if you are a current CPLED student, enrolled in PREP, but have not yet been admitted to your Law Society as a student member, then you should clearly identify yourself as a CPLED student, seeking articles and admission as a student member at the Law Society of Alberta, Manitoba, Nova Scotia or Saskatchewan.

Similarly, if you are licensed to practice law in another country but not yet in Canada, then you should indicate that you are an internationally trained law student, where you are licensed, and that you are seeking requalification in your province.

CPLED does not guarantee any success associated with using the ‘Student Resume’ service (the “Service”).

It is the student’s responsibility to remove all personal information from their resume prior to upload. Students must provide an email address when registering to use the Service to enable recruiters to contact them. The student’s email address will be hidden from recruiters until recruiters decide to contact a candidate.

The website host will only retain information for legitimate purposes, as required by law. CPLED will not retain any resumes or information about a student once the student profile has been deleted from the Service. CPLED will not retain any information about recruiters obtained through the Service.

For further information on how CPLED safeguards the privacy of personal information, please see CPLED’s Privacy policy. If you have any questions regarding the use of the Service or related to the privacy and security of any information provided through the use of the Service, contact admin@cpled.ca.

Your profile will automatically expire 12 months after creation.
