Paralegal certificate - lumina - 02-03-2023
Does anyone know where to get an affordable paralegal certificate other than CLS by BARBRI?
I'm very interested in the paralegal associate degree program from Ashworth, but their in-person proctor requirement is very inconvenient for me.
Thank you!

Ashworth and Penn Foster have certificate programs. Since they're non-credit, there's no proctor requirement.

CLS is by far the most affordable option I've been able to find.
It's owned by BarBri now, but they have a certificate program in Paralegal Studies that is done online, but your certificate comes from a state school that partners with them, but you can pick which one from any list in any state. I got mine in 2012 from University of Georgia. They also have a certificate in Victim Advocacy and another in Legal Investigation and I did those too, from Texas A&M International University. It cost about 1000 dollars when I did the Paralegal Certificate, and the other two certificates around 800 each. The most prestigious school Legal Studies partners with is Auburn University. I haven't been able to find a better deal.

It doubled and costs $1895 now...
