Who we are
Institute of Barristers’ Clerks
The Institute of Barristers’ Clerks was founded in 1922. Our mission is to drive and demonstrate the excellence of the UK’s clerking profession though supporting the development and interests of our members and helping them uphold the high standards of the bar.
The Institute exists to bring our members and their profession closer together and represent the clerking profession within the wider legal community.
Our members are clerks across the whole of the UK, working in every area of the bar, from commercial litigation to criminal and family law. Connecting them and giving them the opportunity to swap experiences and share knowledge is a key part of what we do. Communicating the benefits of a career in clerking and promoting diversity within the profession is also integral to what we do.
Being a member of the IBC has enabled me to engage with lots of clerks outside of my own Chambers, and presented opportunities to be supported and to enhance my own education as a clerk.
