Paralegal programs consist of a two-year associate's degree, four-year bachelor's degree or a certificate, and include general courses on the law and legal research techniques; courses covering specialized areas of the law such as real estate, estate planning and probate, litigation, family law, contracts and criminal law, as well as courses introducing students to the legal applications of computers. Many employers prefer applicants with specialized training. Students can also do internships in which they gain practical experience by working for several months in a law office, corporate legal department or government agency. This experience is an asset when seeking a job after graduation.
