论以法律职业精英化为目标的法律职业资格考试

Legal Professional Qualification Examination Targeting the Specialization of Legal Profession

国家统一法律职业资格考试制度是对国家统一司法考试制度的继承和发展,应当准确认识其在报名资格、考试内容、考试模式等方面的“变”与“不变”,坚持其服务于法律职业精英化的目标。法律职业资格考试中的“法律职业”应做限缩解释,仅限于法官、检察官、律师和公证员。法律职业资格考试具有国家级、统一性、职业资格考试的特征,应协调其与其他国家考试的关系,取消地域区分,突出职业性。在提高报考条件和设置四年过渡期的基础之上,应禁止通过者重复报考,设置报考次数上限。与“二阶段”考试模式相适应,在考试内容方面应精简考查科目,增强命题的综合性和实践性。此外,应当完善合格命题者的资格条件和选拔程序,以社会需求为参考划定分数线,适当延长客观题考试成绩的时间效力。

The National Unified Legal Professional Qualification Examination system is the inheritance and development of the National Unified Judicial Examination system.We should have an accurate understanding of the“change”and“unchange”of the two in terms of the enrollment qualification,examination content and mode,and always adhere to the goal of promoting the specialization of legal profession.The“legal profession”in the Legal Professional Qualification Examination should be constrained and limited to judges,prosecutors,lawyers and notaries.Legal Professional Qualification Examination has the characteristics of national,unification and professionalism.It is necessary to coordinate the relationship between it and other national examinations,cancel the geographical distinction and highlight the professionalism.On the basis of improving the enrollment conditions and setting up a four-year transition period,those who have passed the examination should be prohibited from applying for the examination again,and the upper limit of the number of applications should be set.In order to adapt to the“two-stage”examination mode,we should simplify the examination subjects and enhance the comprehensiveness and practicality of the examination questions.In addition,the qualifications and selection process of qualified proposers should be improved,the score line should be designated according to the social needs,and the valid period of objective test results should be appropriately prolonged.
