You’ll find the proof in our:
- School Accreditation: Earn your paralegal certificate from a paralegal school that has been continuously accredited by the Accrediting Council for Continuing Education and Training (ACCET) since 1981. Accreditation is important to employers; it indicates that you’ve graduated from a program that meets or exceeds minimum educational standards.
- Online format: Enroll anytime you want. Complete your assignments and interact with classmates and faculty from the comfort of your home. You can “go to class” when it’s convenient for you—morning, noon, and night. We’re open 24/7.
- Career placement: Hit the ground running in a program that boasts a 92 percent job placement rate. We help our students obtain the positions they want at law firms and companies around the country. Our placement coordinator will work closely with you to help ensure your success.
- Advanced and specialty courses: Develop expertise in a particular area of the law. You’ll make yourself more attractive to employers, earn the promotion you’ve always wanted, and keep pace with changes in the field.
- One-course-at-a-time: Master one subject before moving onto the next. You’ll stretch your mind by learning how one subject applies to both your current job and your future aspirations. Note that students in the Accelerated program option will take two classes each month. This is best suited for recent college graduates or those who are between jobs and need to retrain quickly.
- Real-world perspective: Study courses that are true-to-life and practical, preparing you for what you’ll actually be doing on the job. You’ll find no fluff in our curriculum—only comprehensive legal courses.
- National certification preparation: Study for the Paralegal Advanced Competency Exam (PACE) and the Certified Legal Assistant (CLA) exam through prep courses that are fully integrated into the curriculum and included in your tuition. While professional certification is voluntary, it’s a way to prove to employers that you have developed professional competency that is on par with certain standards. Certification also increases your chances of being hired or promoted by top-choice employers.
- Faculty and staff: Receive the personal attention, guidance, and support you need to succeed in courses limited to 15 students each. Our faculty and staff are available by e-mail and phone, and our frequent, consistent, and prompt student services are a hallmark of the AIPS experience.
