Business
A student enrolled in paralegal studies at a Utah Career College campus can complete part of degree requirements through online classes. If you combine face-to-face instruction with distance learning in that way, you will find that all legal specialty courses, whether offered day or night, on-campus or online, are taught by faculty with extensive experience in their fields.
Support for online studies
Online students enjoy maximum flexibility, but do face challenges unique to distance learning. Our Online Education Department provides them with academic and technical support through our consortium relationship with Globe Education Network. Students in online paralegal courses have access to tech support help lines and online tutoring, use Blackboard™ (a special educational delivery platform) to communicate with instructors and fellow students, and have access to extensive Internet-based library and database resources. They can take advantage of opportunities offered by Internet-based education and achieve their goals as easily as possible.
A global classroom
Imagine developing regional, national and world-wide professional networks through your relationships with instructors and fellow students. Imagine attending classes in paralegal studies whenever and where ever you are able.
If you enroll in one of our paralegal degree programs, online courses will allow you to continue your education during a period of military service, to attend class at midnight, to fill in a gap in your schedule in a particular quarter, or to conserve precious hours that would otherwise be spent commuting.
A perfect fit for your program: online paralegal courses
If you take selected courses online, a paralegal degree may be attainable in less than the four years usually required for a bachelor’s program, or the two years otherwise required for the standard associate degree program.
Why is online education such a good fit for a paralegal student? Paralegals need to be highly organized, self-starters, able to work independently and comfortable with technology. Does that sound like you? We assure you that our college is committed to your success, and will provide the support you need.
