There are two separate Legal Administrative Assistant Certificate programs: 1) Litigation, and 2) Corporate/Conveyancing. These two programs are independent and may be completed in any order, allowing students to start their studies in either the fall or winter semesters. Both programs prepare students for employment as legal administrative assistants; however, students who complete both certificate programs will maximize employment and career advancement opportunities.

In addition to learning highly specialized content in two distinct areas of law, students will acquire the legal office work ethic and professionalism expected of legal administrative assistants. Both programs may be completed on campus or online. Students enrolled in on-campus classes normally attend on a full time basis and complete courses in a prearranged schedule. Online students may complete the courses on a full- or part-time basis.
