Graduation

Students graduate from the Center once they have completed their full course of study and have met all requirements. Graduates are immediately eligible for all graduate benefits such as job placement assistance, joining the Center's Alumni Network and many professional paralegal associations, and sitting for the Certified Legal Assistant (CLA) exam.

 

Commencement ceremonies are held bi-annually and recognize the accomplishments and successes garnered during a student’s course of study. During commencement, students who have met their graduation requirements receive their Paralegal Certificate or Associate of Applied Science Degree along with Honor Certificates and certificates of induction into Lambda Epsilon Chi, the national paralegal honor society sponsored by the American Association for Paralegal Education.
