CENTER FOR ADVANCED LEGAL STUDIES
The Center For Advanced Legal Studies, founded in 1987, specializes in paralegal education. The Center For Advanced Legal Studies offers a Paralegal Certificate program and an Associate of Applied Science Degree program. Both programs are accredited, approved by the American Bar Association and provide a comprehensive approach to paralegal studies.
Opportunities are also available for individuals who would like to take only selected classes and seminars to increase their legal knowledge and understanding of specific topics.
The Center For Advanced Legal Studies’ Externship program is designed to give students practical, on-the-job experience with an attorney, judge, corporate legal department or other law related business. The Externship allows students to apply their newly acquired skills in an appropriate employment setting, gain law-related work experience and build confidence in their abilities. They learn teamwork and the ins-and-outs of the legal work environment, and can add a valuable entry to their resume.
