PLAT's certificate program caters to the self-paced learner. Testing on-line provide the students with an immediate opportunity to evaluate their understanding of the material. Students have to achieve a certain level of expertise to receive a certificate of completion.
Students can register to take a single lesson or the entire program, all at a reasonable rate.
This on-line paralegal certificate program gives students a solid grounding in the law without having to go to a specific class at a specific time. Since laws change from place to place, the material used in the PLAT program relates only to general legal concepts. In no way does this program serve as an adequate source of information on a jurisdiction's laws. The PLAT program does not contain enough material so that a student may engage in the practice of law. If anyone using this course has a question of law, consult an attorney.
