National University

San Diego, California, United States

National University’s Bachelor of Science in Paralegal Studies program prepares learners to become adept legal assistants with comprehensive training in legal research, document preparation, and case management. This Experience allows students to apply their acquired knowledge in a real-world setting, focusing on tasks such as drafting legal documents, conducting legal research, and supporting legal professionals. Students in this program are skilled in legal terminology, case law, and ethical considerations, and they seek to enhance their practical skills through hands-on projects. We are looking for employers who can provide guidance and constructive feedback, and who are committed to regular communication throughout the project. Employers should be prepared to review and support the learners' work and participate in the final presentation to discuss the outcomes of the project. IMPORTANT: National University offers monthly term starts, allowing students to commence their projects approximately every 4 weeks. Most students will complete their required hours in 8-12 weeks. The university welcomes projects on a rolling basis. Once your project is accepted, we will match you with a student as soon as the next cohort becomes available.
