A practical skills course providing students with practical knowledge and an insight into those tasks necessary to work as a freelance Paralegal. As a result of a unique method of teaching involving interaction and role play, students learn a substantial amount in a relatively short period of time (four days). Over many years this short intensive course, has been attended by Law Graduates, undergraduates, legal secretaries and many others from various backgrounds who have an interest in the Law.
The benefits of attending the course are numerous:
- As a legal secretary, attending the course will broaden horizons and give you a better chance of finding that 'special' job - employers are impressed if an applicant has some knowledge of paralegal work and there are an increasing number of solicitors looking for 'Paralegal/Secretaries'.
- The practical training not only gives an insight into the Legal Profession but also the nature of the work you may be called upon to perform.
- It not only teaches you 'how' to perform legal tasks, but also explains 'why' you are performing them.
- It promotes confidence if you are looking for work, and provides employers with employees they can feel confident about employing.
- If you are a graduate or undergraduate, it complements your academic studies and bridges that gap between study and practical experience.
- You are awarded a certificate on completing the course, provided you pass the 'Course Review Test' which can be taken at home.
- A one year Affiliate Membership of the National Association of Paralegals is included in the examination fee.
The course is accredited by the National Association of Paralegals (NAPL) which is the governing body for accredited paralegal in the country. The NAPL actively promotes the work of Paralegals as a separate profession, and has done so since 1987. They hold qualifying examinations, provide seminars and run a number of courses including a Post Graduate Paralegal Practice Course, and a Legal Secretarial course.
AH Paralegal is run by Amanda Hamilton who worked in an International Law firm for five years in London's West End. She includes, within the structure of the course, case scenarios and examples from her own experiences together with the necessary tips and pointers to give her students confidence in an increasingly demanding and competitive market.
As well as being both Managing and Course Director for AH Paralegal, Amanda is also one of the main tutors for the NAPL and The Institute of Legal Secretaries and PAs
